how much of this applies to Tiptronic transmission boxsters? (probably a dumb question)

also on my Tip, how long is it "safe" to stay in first when first starting the car?

i'm always in a rush to get it to 2nd (as it stays above first until you turn the car off)

I would also like to hear something on this as I have a tip. I thought I read somewhere that tips are not as prone to IMS failures as manuals are, but is that because there are more manual cars out there? I try to wind mine up as much as possible once she's warm, but I am in a lot of stop and go traffic.
