it seems to use the least (though haven’t really run it enough to be accurate assumption) when you drive it just as turbo is kicking in

if you hammer it, it drinks, if you stick it in 5th at 30mph and put your foot down with loads of lag it blows out the breather

ultimately though conpressure all consistent on each cyclinder, no leakage, turbo blades are 0.4m between casing and absolutely no oil at all in exhaust!

underneath there is a fair amount of road grime where oil has stuck to the car!

im debating changing gaskets but reading everyone’s posts on here appears normal!
