I’m sure ARP as a fastener company advocates lube that reduces variations and achieves clamp force intended as consistent as possible for their optimal design without overengineering.
It was just not clear to me if Porsche spec. was based on dry or lubed, as I have not seen factory document specifying to lube.

ARP supplies their own lubricant with the bolts they make & sell.
