Default Synthetic oil in a tranny

I have a D-15B on 10pds of boost and I have 3qts of honda man. trans fluid but I was wondering if I can run mobil 1 syn. 10-30 in my tranny or I do I have to run the honda trans fluid or does it even matter

i would stick w/Honda MTF. i know Honda allows 10W-30 motor oil, but that is in emergency situations.

Honda MTF
