Synthetic dexron ATF for thw World Class T5...

Who's running any? I read through some of the stuff but didn't come up with any definitive answers either way. All I really want to know is this...

1. Did you switch from regular Dexron II, IIE, or III to a full Dex synthetic and did it change any of the shifting qualities of the transmission?

2. What kind of longevity did you see from the ATF from fluid change to fluid change ie. was the fluid still getting smoked or was it still kinda clean?

3. Which company did you use and why?

4. Did you do any before and after comarisons on a chassis dyno between the change from regual to synthetic?

I'm asking these cause I saw a episode of Horsepower TV on spike wher they had a 2002 camaro ss with a 6 speed. They drained out all the engine oil, manual trans and rear end fluids. They refilled them all with Royal Purple fluids and *supposedly* picked up an additional 13 rear wheel horsepower. I don't necessarily believe all that but getting some extra power would be nice. So what say you?
