Yep... what he said.. no additives. The part of the differential that uses the viscous fluid is a sealed unit called the viscous coupling. It resides inside the differential and the fluid inside does not mix with the gear oil that you fill your differential with. The gear oil in the differential just lubricates all the gears and moving parts inside the differential housing.

I run that same Amsoil in my rear diff and haven't had any problems with it yet.... knock on wood.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
The Severe Gear is one of the best gear oils available for the diff. It's fine on its own.
