[s-cars] Average Oil Burn?

[mlp qwest]

Just a thought Cody, but you might try a lighter weight oil next change and
see if you "burn" rate doesn't change and/or your gas mileage go up some.  I
think too heavy a weight oil for operating conditions can result in more oil
"push by" in certain seals/bearing -- the sleeve bearing in the turbocharger
being my personal candidate of choice.  Contrary to a lot of the SPAM I seem
to be getting these days, thicker isn't always better .... IMO of course
....

~Gents,
~	For you other modified and lead-footed drivers...that have
~140,000+ miles on your UrS's...what sort of oil burn rate do you
~guys see?  I seem to go though a quart of oil about every 1200
~miles or so...of generally "spirited" driving/occasional
~autocross.  Never really done a road trip in the car so not sure
~how much she would burn just cruising on the highway.
