i was wondering the same thing, i was told that no more than a quart in a 1500-2000 mile period, running it hard like normal. On any built motor.

a quart sounds a lil high to me. but i honestly don't know. i haven't put that many miles on my turbo setup yet and i still have a slight leak in my drain.
