I'm confused. You've got 1.6 instead of 1.8 quarts? I'm not sure how the transmission would hold a full 6 quarts if it's made for 1.8? (maybe i'm reading wrong?)
I don't know about any substantial gains from going to 1.8, however, using better fluid (like a synthetic if your tranny is made for or can use it) will help keep those synchros alive longer as long as you are shifting nice and smoothly. Other than that just make sure to keep it flushed at your regular intervals with good fluid. I flush mine usually a season early just because I prefer preventative maintenance.
