Can anyone confirm positively that the Autozone Royal Purple stuff meets the spec for our Porsche engines?

Royal Purple is 100% Synthetic per their site. Syntech is an additive that shouldn't be in the oil per the item number. Must have been a stock photo on the Autozone site.

It doesn't look like Royal Purple is on Porsche's approved oil list. But they also frown on my BNC air filter, FVD software, techno torque plenum, 200 cell cats and even my Sirius receiver.
