Default Oil change for 718 GT4

Does anyone know how many litre engine oil I should use for oil change for 718 GT4? Can't find it on the user manual. Also can't find the torque of the sump drain plug and oil filter.

My 718 Spyder took 7.5 Liters (about 8 quarts) to get mid way between max and min fill lines. Another 0.2 L got it to the max fill line. So I'd say start with 7.5 L and top off if needed. 25 N-M (19 Ft-LB) for oil filter. Just torque the drain plug a quarter turn or so until it clicks - very light torque need, and it's obvious when it clicks into place.
