Default synthetic PS fluid?

Well i ordered my new True One PS pump and pulley my stock pump is about to give out on me so safety first! anyways the guys at Turn One recommended any synthetic power steering fluid and i was just wondering if any of you guys had any luck with Royal Purples synthetic PS fluid or Redline's PS fluid? As far as i googled, there are the only 2 companies that make PS fluid in a synthetic..anyone have a recommendation? thanks in advance

Either one is fine, and as they've said, synthetics are necessary, especially if you are open tracking/road racing/autocrossing. The Royal Purple ever so slightly out specs the Redline, BTW.
