2001 1.8TQM 47000 miles APR 1bar is my only engine mod. I am losing about a quart of oil every 300 or so miles. There are no leaks at all. Currently using M1 0w40. Where could the oil be going? I havent noticed any blue smoke of oil burning off. Could the turbo be going bad and dumping oil off into the intake manifold? I took of the hose an noticed a small amount of oil, but nothing too abnormal. Any suggestions on what to check would be appreciated.

if they are black and oily... it means that the motor is burning the oil. If that's the case... well there are a number of things that can cause it... one could be the chip... because most chips advance the timing a bit (or alot in some cases)... it's possible your engine isn't tuned perfectly.. This is of course all assumption... it could be a leaky line underneath and if you have you belly pan on.. you might not be able to see it cause it's all forming on top of it
Good luck
