18psi equals what again?
i believe some oil will burn due to the temp of the turbo will create. how much oil will burn is beyond me, just check it every weekend

depends upon the clearances of the bearings as well as how often you're going at full load. It is common for about a quart or so between changes.

I work for Honda, and they state that 1 qt every thousand miles is acceptable.

I think it's a bullshit thing they say just so they don't have to warranty the new accords and v6's that burn oil and foul out plugs like no ones business. But, there it is...
