ATF fluid question for auto guys

iam about to flush my tranny and I want to put in some good ATF. I was looking at the red line racing ATF and it sounds preety good.

http://www.redlineoil.com/products_g...59&subcatID=19

I know people that run the royal purple stuff but iam looking for something more hardcore because I plan on making 340-350whp on the stock auto (iam also installing a additional trans cooler). Now I know the manual recomends M3 or dexron 2 but Iam wondering if this stuff is compatible with the stock auto. If someone that knows more about auto trans's then me can help it would be much appreciated.

Don't know how much difference there would be in all the best choices... (nor would anyone else be able to tell you honestly) I have seen hard data that supports synthetics.

AIM tuning in Indy http://www.aimtuning.com/aim%20pages/home.htm does this kind of service all the time. Check out the site.

Also, you need to get some recommendations on how the auto will hold up. I have seen numbers that the 300~350 range is the limit..

Look for posts by WEAKLINK. IMO one of the more knowledgeable members re: autos.
