Default Royal Purple Synchromax Transmission Fluid

This is an except from another SEMA post, but I thought the product deserved its own discussion thread.

Has anyone else heard of this product, or more specifically, about its use for our cars? I really want to try it, but am hesitant to be the first.

Looks expensive.
How much could it be? $15/qt. at the absolute max?

Still on of the cheapest "performance" mods you could make, assuming it actually works?

Wael and Bassem of Elda Engineering, recommend Neo to me. They don't sell the stuff, but like it in their cars. It is full synthetic, not partial like GM stuff. They also start with better base minerals in their oil. Sure it costs them more to make, but the oil can keep it's properties better. I am going to give it a go after friday. I'll report back with my feedback FWIW.
