I would personally never throw in a chemical that has not been tested on the various materials found in Pcar's motors (seals, gaskets, bearings, rods, etc). But that's just excessive paranoia maybe! Unless the engineers from Porsche themselves tells me 'no worries' then I'd be happy to give it a try.
I don't think you looking at gains, but more of a factory setting "restoration" by de-clogging FIs or having fresh engine (vital) parts swapped to NEW. I wouldn't be surprised that if you change all of the parts you've mentioned above for new P parts I'm sure you'll gain back the +25hp that your car was originally giving out for free
