17's won't clear the front brakes. You can run custom made 17's on the rear with stock brakes. 17" turbo twists won't work on a turbo. They're too narrow and have the wrong offset.

Mods that increase flow such as better flowing heads, intakes, exhausts, will usually increase the bmep. I wonder if Porsche's figures are measured with the engine connected to a turbo and stock...

I've seen other speed/time graphs look like that. I think it's the smoothing function of the software that causes it.

Seems like less than 1/2 quart drains from the block. IMO you can skip draining the turbos and change the filter every other oil change. The great majority of the oil is in the tank.

Mine behaved that way when the MAF went bad. If you can datalog it should be lean when it misses, and the fuel trims will be way off. Might also be the fuel filter, but I'd bet on the MAF.

I was told that you can get 17" wheels that will clear stock rear brakes but not fronts. I considered running 335/35-17 tires. They are near stock OD and should fit.
