Go by OLM, use a full synthetic that meets the spec, and at least pull the dipstick and check the level every 1000 miles. Turbos are hard on oil and even the best synthetics are going to lose volume just by heat in the CHRA not including what is normally burned in the combustion chamber.

This.

My dad owns an oil change shop, I don't know the exact specs/recommendations of the oil manufacturers, but he usually says 7500 miles max, that fact that it has turbos and most who post on this board live in very hot climates I would go conservative (Granted, getting my oil changed is probably less of a big deal than most)
