Hey, wait a minute, you are the guy I have been googleing for the past two days.

Sorry I am real slow today(slower than usual). Please put this to rest, as you have more knowledge in your little toe Than I will ever have on this oil issue. What do you (or can you legally) recommend me to use in my 2001 boxster "s"? Please include weight also(I live in ohio but don't drive too much in winter). I plan to change every 7000miles or once a year. MY car has 60k miles on it, I don't abuse it, but I do like to hear it sing through the gears quite often.

Ps do you still think ZDDPlus is a good additive for me?
