Synthetic MTX fluid.

Whats a good brand of synthetic Manual Trans fluid?? Please don't suggest something like Redline or others that may be outrageously expensive even though they might be the best ones around, I'm not that rich, but I do want to change over to something better.

I know that from experience. I don't plan on getting "joe's brand x synthetic " I was figuring on Castrol, Mobil 1, Valvoline etc....
I just wondered if someone could recommend one that they've had a good experience with or whatever. I know its all personal preference, But if more people recommend one brand over another then I might be inclined to try that one.
