He is asking do u guys put extra amount of oil in sense what the dipstick reads doesnt account for oil going into the turbo.

it does if you run the car a bit before you check it, as per standard procedure... add oil, start car, run for a few seconds, shut car off, check oil.

I would not put any more in than what honda specified on the dipsticks. Turbo or NA.

How much can a turbo and oil lines really hold anyway?

How many people really run the exact 100% correct amount of oil anyway?
