Oil Consumption

This is a basic poll to ask about your oil consumption after you installed your Turbo/Supercharger.

I completely rebuilt the engine, but still burn oil, escpecially when the throttle is pushed deeper than normal. A friend of mine has a WRX and he too mentioned unusually high oil consumption only when he is in boost.

Re: Oil Consumption

My car is unblown, but I do have nitrous on it. It uses right at a quart every 1000 miles, which is perfectly acceptable IMO. I run the hell out of it every chance I get. I'm sure if I babied it I wouldn't need to add any, but what fun would that be?
