At a Porsche Parade Tech session that I attended, a PNCA rep claimed he was tasked by Porsche to drive a new 996 turbo and only top off the Mobil 1 and change the filter every 15,000 miles. He was also instructed to use 87 octane gas. After 100,000 miles the motor was torn down and everything was within the wear limits.
