Any LSD will help. Retrofitting AWD would be a really big and difficult job. I don't think it fits the gearbox you have.

If you disable DSC completely by long pressing the button, the car will enable its electronic differential brake feature. This could be helpful in such a situation. It will brake the spinning wheel, transfering more torque to the wheel with more traction.
