friction modifier

ok so im crusing my favorite store (kragen) and i go down the isle where they have all kinds of additives and one caught my eye it was for limited slip diffs. said it inceases something or another and was basicaly a friction modifier. well ive been reading on here that w/ a synthetic oil you offten don't need this my question is i have redline syn i don't know which one it is since the guy i bought the truck from had already put it in there and i never bothered to ask (too excited about other stuff) im wondering now if maybe this stuff wouldn't be so bad. my ls feels almost like a locker now and i probably don't need it but its not expensive and im courious so ya'll let me know what ya think
