The issue with the oil dilution is the 1.5 turbo has turbo with GDI.
The two adds so much pressure to the cylinders that fuel can get pass the rings and get into the oil pan.
If you have just turbo without the gas direct injection then you are good as far as I know.
If you have just the GDI without the turbo boost then you are also good as far as I know.
