Synthetic Oil (trans and motor)

I am considering switching to Synthetic Oil now that I am super boosting my car. I do n't drive all that much per year, so cost is not really an issue. I just want what is best for the car's performance and durability.
I have heard that Synthetic oil is not good for our engines, because we don't use the synthetic seals that Corvettes and Porsches use. I have heard that the syntheics can actually break down those seals and cause leaks! No leaks for me, please. Just wondering what everyone is using and what their experiences have been. Thanks!
