Default turbo needs more oil?

okay, heres my deal...my car was leaking a little oil...i think from the oil pan...so i torqued it down to spec. i filled up oil, turned car on and let it idle for like 5 minutes. after i let it idle, i checked the oil again, after letting the car sit for a while to make sure all the oil settled to the pan...the oil was only 3/4 of the way up to the second dot, which i'm guessing is like 1/4 oil gone...but i just filled it up...so what i am wondering is, will the turbo use up more oil than a stock n/a motor? i figure because it has more lines for the oil to go through, maybe the oil gets stored in there? idk, anyone else have this problem? oh yah, my car is not burning oil either...
