Quick question about RTV sealant

Im replacing the IM gaskets and to ease removal of the gaskets next time im going to use RTV. Which one do yall suggest I use...Red,Black blue,etc. Im thinking I need to be using the high heat kind...several heat ranges...because of the turbo. Any input is appreciated. Thanks yall.

I always just use orange Permatex sealant. It's the high temp stuff and comes off easily when you remove the part.

Really though, there is a specific sealant used for gaskets. It's called "gasket sealant".
