I don't believe it calls for changing the oil that frequently. I would just top it off every 4-5k miles. I use the following:

In 85deg weather, I've noticed my car takes ~4miles for my oil to reach 180F. I baby it until I'm at a min 180F, then I drive my car hard. Never had a P0302 error (knock on wood).

No, I wasn't running Torque. The P3Cars gauge is always plugged into the OBDII port, so I'm thinking it's behaving the same as if I had a bluetooth dongle for Torque plugged in.

Did you have the genuine Speed Bleeders? I've had one set of knockoffs (Goodridge, Edelbrock, Russel, etc) and they leaked. Lots of complaints with the "other" brands.
