A quart in about 3 weeks or so...

A quart in 3 weeks is a little much, but not as bad as some I've seen. Have you checked and cleaned out your PCV system? If it's blocked it can cause more blow-by than usual.

I'd go ahead and fix whatever gaskets & lines need repairing or replacing, cleanup the PCV system and see how it does on oil then. Make sure you check the feed and return oil lines to your turbo too.

20w50 doesn't flow for shit when it's hot either.

Do your engine a favor and use 5w30.
