Hey Mark,
Yeah, the link (below) will take you deeper into the sump than you ever dreamed possible. Browse around, but when you're ready for the data go to the Used Oil Analysis Forum. There are several Saab turbo UOAs there, a few Volvo turbos & a bunch of VAG 1.8T turbo & Mitsu WRX turbo results. The WRXs are comparatively easy on the oil, while the Saabs seem to be the biggest abusers. I'm sure the relative abuse is determined by multiple factors (turbo bearing design, average turbo speed, piston ring location, cam & lifter design, etc) & not just thermal loads.
