[Biturbos4] Synthetic oil - frequency of changes

Amsoil European Car formula 5W-40, changed every 5-7.5k.

Seals blew on the original turbos at 50k+100 miles...

I've recently enabled the "variable service" interval in the trip computer; 
I'm curious to see what it will suggest, though I will likely change no 
later than 7.5k anyway.

I've also started using the Amsoil "Aboslute Efficiency" filters; oil is 
noticably cleaner at change time.

Folks --

I'm driving an '01 S4 in which I put in synthetic oil.  I've been changing
it ever 6K miles.  I just wanted to hear back from folks:

1.  Are you also using synthetic?
2.  If so, how often do you change your oil?
