Ran on almost no coolant and didn't blow any gaskets.

You have a major problem - 3 gallons of coolant is a serious leak....
1) Check your oil level to see if there is coolant / oil intermix.
2) Did you "bleed" the system after refilling with coolant?
3) What did you fill the coolant overflow bottle with - some off the shelf coolant fluids react to the Porsche coolant causing gelling"?.
4) If in doubt, get the system pressure checked by a reputable Porsche specialist.
