ummm. So you blew your motor up by not putting oil in it?

 

How on gods green earth did you manage that? Don't you check your oil before track days? Or did you just have a big leak? Subarus get really loud as soon as they get about a quart low.

 

Everytrack day

Oil

Transmission Fluid

Coolant

Brake Fluid

 

 

Then again I own a subaru and they tend to eat oil at higher boost levels

Including a trackday and dyno tuning time I ate up just over a quart in less then 1000 miles. But my subaru has always eaten oil. I have no leaks. I really need to add a catch can but ehhh. I can hear when my car needs oil. as soon as its about a 1/2 quart low it sounds like a 3.4gm at initial startup.

 

But that was about 10 pulls on the dyno, 3 passes and some top end play.

 

But like I said my car eats oil and always has. But I do always make checks before I go down the track or put my car on the dyno. If I'm Beating the shit out of my car I want to make sure its happy.

 

I can't fault someone else though for not going over the same process as I do. Mine has been tweaked because of my cars nom nom of oil.

 

You know as well as I do that your more likely to blow oil at WOT. If those 1500 miles were all racing miles I could see eating up oil but I have no clue what a LS1 eats compared to say a EJ205 or even a EJ25x for that matter.

is it normal for your car to burn oil like that? seems like a design flaw

 

and i dont know it for sure, but im thinking theres more to it than erik neglecting the oil

over 75% of the turbo subarus I've seen will coat the inside of there intercoolers. Thats stock btw if the cars are driven hard. Every oilchange my buddy bill's legacy gt will lose about 1/2 a quart. Now Me on the other hand between oilchanges assuming no trackdays/dyno tuning I lose max 1 quart.

 

Mines done it since the day I got it.
