I stocked up on the Mobil 1 0W-40 last Sunday at CT when it was on sale for something like just under $7.00 ea. I bought 20L's enough for 2 oil changes and a spare or two.
The shopping cart was filled with so much oil the spouse said I should just buy shares in the company instead! But hey, $3 bucks off a L is a big savings I couldn't turn down.

Some of the older 911's and 356's use Brad Penn brand as a sub for an oil no longer made as air cooled engines require oils that won't break down under higher heats among other reasons. It's all very 'Dark Art's' if you ask me.

I used 15-50 for 1 year. I noticed lifters were ticking and also cold starts on cold mornings had smoke at startup.
Went back to 5-40 and cold start smoke has gone away and lifters don't tick.

Here's what I've gleaned from various threads and the manual. It's different for the tt's and NA's. tt's have GT1 SOHC engine and turbos and use either M1 15W-50 or M1 V Twin 20W-50. Latter has slightly more ZDDP but is generally felt to be too thick for our cooler climate. Former is formulated more specifically for high performance turbo engines according to the label. Neither should smoke or anything else undesireable in tt's. Have not found any disciplined analysis and expect whatever is recommended in the manual is fine.
