Oil consumption and this engine breaking in sound typical to me. Everything is fine, the consumption should cease ONCE its finally settled in...mine started to stabilize somewhere between 6-8000 miles. Now it has ZERO consumption. Oils also shear pretty fast in this engine. Fuel dilution can also cause thinning but I doubt that's an issue on a new Si. If worried get some UOA's done.
