Many people use Swepco 201 (I have no affiliation with them, but do use it as well).
Here is a link for one location that sells it. http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/...=SWE-201-80W90

Swepco 201 is considered THE oil to run in our transmissions. Other than the cost, NEVER heard a complaint about it.

If you are going to run on the track, I would recommend using the Swepco 210, if not then the 201 is the way to go.

Let me know anyone needs any, we sell it here.

Thanks

You may want to ping Peter Zimmerman over in the 911 Forum. He has tons of experience in the Porsche transmission arena and ha some recommendations specifically for the 915. I suspect he also has recommendations on the 930 transmission as well.
