Engine Oil Consumption

Excuse my ignorance as this is my first turbo car......As the title states is this normal between oil changes. I am not talking a drastic amount, but after 3K the oil level has dropped slightly below the MAX hole. Am I paranoid, or is this OK?
Thanks,

You shouldn't really be using any oil...

Unless your running lots of boost (25+) and tracking the car...

Did you check on level ground with oil @ same temp?
