Bear in mind that the engine will be broken in sooner if you stay in a lower gear with higher engine rpm. e.g.an engine will reach the same state of break-in in half the miles at an average 3400 rpm as compared to driving at an average of 1700 rpm. Engine break-in is a function of total revolutions, not simply miles on the odometer.
My Porsches are mostly garage queens, seldom tracked. To your questions,
1. 3000 miles or 1 year, whichever comes first
2. I don't do track alignments, so 3000 mi at the earliest. Suspension needs some time and miles to settle in.
3. Near 1000 miles, averaging above 3000 rpm
4. Track package. More shouldn't be necessary. I'm also going with Suntek. Many wrap pros and detailer nowadays think Suntek has the best product.

No, and i never had PCCB. Great brakes, for sure The new pads will probably outgas like with regular pads tho. To break in the pads id find some vacant highway and do some hard slowdowns from as fast as i dared down to 10-20 mph and repeat quickly a few times to see if any outgassing. Id want some miles and some of that brake exercise b4 id trust them on a track.

If you do a quick brake in you can join me and Kobalt on the autumn course of Scuderia Hanseat at Nürburgring. The course starts on sunday 9/23 and ends on wednesday 9/26.

My tracking sheet shows entry into the body shop on the 20th of July with a few Manufaktur options which will take less than a couple of hours and projected to be completed 27 July my feeling is it will be done on or around the 20th of July.......My 718 CS was completed on the 24th of July last year and was at the dealership on the 18th of August.
