Diff fluid
75W90 is thinner so you'll have less drivetrain loss but our diff capacity is pretty small at about 0.7 quarts so it is going to get pretty hot. It is probably fine if you don't track or auto x at all but at the track I'd want something thicker which is why I run 75w140.
It´s a Torsen differential, therefore it dont need Friction Modfier. But it dont hurt if the oil contains Friction Modifier.

How do a torsen Differential works?
It’s actually quite simple – by creating friction. Friction within the gearing is what resists wheel slip. When torque is applied to the differential, it generates thrust forces on the gears. The gears, in turn, push against the inside walls of the differential case, and that produces friction. In short, the more torque is applied, the more friction is generated, and the more resistance to wheel spin there is. See How it Works on this website.
Billmann has posted Pictures here, he found the "Ears" of the friction disks that hold them in Position at the side ot the Differential sheard of. They come out of the differential while changing the oil.
Sheard of by.... to much Friction?
