As George said, some may not use oil, but unless yours has been rebuilt, its probably got a few miles on it and its going to burn, leak, and blow by some oil (as mine does). Granted, my car has 165k miles on it, and I highly doubt the first owners used synthetic oil, so its got some wear. Also depends how you drive it. I run the crap outa mine and it pushes some oil into the intake when its getting spun up to 5k rpms even with the oil seperator. Drive normal, and the only oil it uses is what it leaks out from the front crank pulley... Either way, you will really enjoy the car once you get the turbo on there! Also, the Mobil 1 filter is also a high quality filter choice and sometimes easier to find than the Wix or Mann filters. Autozone carrys the Mobil one's
