Will this hurt anything?

Well, too much oil can cause foaming which is very bad - liquid flows, foam doesn't. You want your oil to flow.

Porsche increased the oil capacity spec several years ago in a TSB but never issued a recalibrated dipstick or digi gauge (do a search and you'll find more about it). So, you're probably OK. But, it's best to be sure. You can extract some oil one of two ways:

Unscrew the filter cannister (be sure to have a catch pan) - this will give you upwards of a quart, or you can extract it through the dipstick tube with a mity-vac or similar tool. Then add it back in until you get the level right.

I would go with OEM, I went with the iridium plugs for my subaru and noticed no improvement to the performance of the motor. The only difference was the interval of replacement, but the price out weighed that.
