Default Looking to buy Red Line MTF.

I have a 2009 Civic Si and the clutch is going to need to be changed shortly. I am in the market for a new manual transmission fluid. I am trying to choose between Amsoil and Red Line MTF's. When I put my car into Amsoil's database they recommend 5W30 but when I select my car in Red Line it tells me to get 75W80.

Just wondering if these are both correct...

75W80 is heavy duty gear oil. It is used mostly in highway trucks and heavy machinery in the transfer cases and differentials for those beasts. I would honestly check your owners manual and see what the recommended type and weight of oil to use in the gear box.
