sorry for the late response. this was confirmed by JimB and i saw it on the tequipment brochure. regarding r compounds with a regular 996 like mine, there are fine. just came back from a DE/track day and no puffs of smoke, oil pressure was fine, and i was hauling a$$. only with race slicks will you generate enough G forces to cause the oil starvation problem.

I spoke to my Porsche Center. They confirmed that the oil pickup mod was part of X51.
They also told me that the mod made it possible to use R-rated tires. I didn't ask specifically about this, they just guessed why I was asking about the oil pickup...
