Dry sump.
Yea, in retrospect that's a big oversight - on the writer's part and Porsche's.

Its very limiting on the track and has cooked more than a few motors. Ergo my technosump.

Now i guess w can call it a dry sump aside from the fact that the sump is not dry, and there is no significant reservoir. But aside from that' its perfect.

I also find the defense of the 996-986 similarities amusingly weak "th3 911 had 5 gauges instead of 3 and a bigger windshield".

My heart beats faster just hearing the words :-)
