Default B16 greddy turbo


Does the engine eat up oil faster when turbo is slapped on?

if you started losing oil after the install, then you're either leaking it out or burning it.

vtec engines naturally do have some oil consumption... some more than others, now if you need to add a quart every couple days that's a serious issue but to be low a quart at the end of the month is nothing to worry about imo...
