Obviously that makes sense, and that was my thinking behind why it uses so much. I mean i hear that 911's use something like 9 qts of oil (dry sump system). But the Duratec still manages to suffer from oiling problems. You mean to tell me they cant keep the thing lubricated with twice its displacement in oil? How come none of those issues came up during testing? It just angers me that i have to pay extra in oil, and still have to worry about taking a turn hard with my foot on the throttle.
