It not necessarily that straightforward of an answer. When you are in the more "stretching the envelope" world of higher performance cars, the fluids and mechanical components that they lubricate are designed to go together. So although an aftermarket fluid might have certain properties in which it is "better" than the OEM fluid, it might not have one or more of the necessary additives in the OEM fluid that are critical to some mechanical components' lives.... I chose to be lazy and instead of trying to research it all to be sure, I just stick OEM on everything except brake fluid and windshield washer fluid..It's up to each owner to decide what is best for him/her.
