Pros: Higher boiling temp
Cons: Needs to be replaced more often

I would recommend this only for track use. It's overkill for street use, and needs to be replaced more often (you do flush your brake lines regularly, right?).

I've never boiled this in my 944 Turbo. However, I flush my brake lines a few times during track season. I alternate between ATE Super Blue and ATE Gold, so that I know when the lines are fully flushed (different colored fluids).

Fluids with higher boiling points tend to be more hygroscopic (absorbs water), which is why it has to be flushed more often.

Have I mentioned that you should flush your brake lines often?

Pros: Confidence, not that expensive
Cons: I don't technically need it.

I did a bleed after changing out lines and replaced the OEM fluid with this. There's no insane improvements, but it's good confidence.

Pros:
Cons:

^by the way, I don't track my car, but 15k/once a year flush is recommended to keep mushy pedals from returning
