It depends on what transmission you have.  I belive Ford recommends ATF for T5s, but I'm sure someone else will chime in.

For the Tremec 3550, I use GM Syncromesh.

I'm running castrol ATF in my T5 right now.  for a little added protection, you could run Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF - little more expensive though.
