Strong Electrical drain problem! 1999 Porsche Boxster

Hi,

Still have not found the strong electrical drain on my battery. I have to disconnect battery if I let car sit longer than 3 hours! Alternator works great! New 850ca Bosche battery.

I have removed all fuses and still gets drained. I now have to disconnect my battery every night, or if I let the car sit for more than 3 hours.

I have not had any luck at pelican..

Does anyone have idea's left...

This is my only car that I rely on and drive everyday.

1999 Porsche Boxster 986 5 speed manual 101k miles all stock and original.

I have tried test's with a cheap Sears mulitimeter..
(so it says, but I think it is far short of a multimeter) and I have tried all the settings. The meter has on it: dcv, acv, dcma, dcua, temp, and there are 5 different dials to read from..

I just can't get anywhere with this problem. I have to disconnect my battery anytime I leave the car sit for more than 3 hours. It is a strong drain.
And it will also drain like this with all fuses removed from fuse box.

No lights on, no Ignition drain, key out always. No aftermarket completely stock.
