I wouldn't put "slick 50" in anything, personally. Oil additives are by very definition "band aids", and I've seen them do much more harm than good, over the years.

I went through this with my case recently, when I acquired it. I did a TON of reading, because I'm a royal purple and redline oil fan, and I intended to use one of those products in the gearbox. I eventually had to concede; with the preponderance of bad experiences using anything other than Porsche OEM fluid in the gearbox, that I didn't want to do it twice. I hit up suncoast and used the OEM. I've been very, very glad I did.

Ymmv, but that's my opinion.
