It was flushed by the last owner around 5000 miles before I bought it

That doesn't tell me how long ago it was flushed :P

I usually recommend at least every 2 years with dexcool. Have you checked to make sure your thermostat is opening properly? That line should be getting close to the fan turn on point.

I wouldn't add anything foreign to the cooling system.

If you want the car to run colder, put a 180° thermostat in and have the PCM fan speeds changed
