Have you tried Castrol SRF? Its wet boiling point (which is more applicable to how most people care for their brake fluid) is higher than all the other high temp offerings out there. I have used it with great success in road racing compared to Motul 660 which is a nice fluid in itself, but if you aren't flushing it very often it has issues like all the rest. I value wet boiling point much more than the dry points they all advertise, since unlike the road racing stuff, I do not plan on flushing the fluid weekly
