There are a lot of 'I think' in this - sorry.
I think it depends on how many drain plugs you've got - it varies between 2 and 5 (again - I think) - the more drain points, the more oil you can get out. If you've drain point at the back of the engine (which mine hasn't - or I couldn't find it...) I think you can get another litre out.
From what I recall, with 4 drain points mine took a touch over 7 litres to refill.
Can't say how much I got out as a considerable amount of it ended up on my drive when I moved on of the catch cans..

Its supposed to take 10litres but mines had 3 oil changes in the the 18 months i've owned it and no ones got more than about 6ish back in even removing all the drain plugs and vacuuming oil out. 2 tubs of castrol edge will suffice
