I did an oil change. Thought the car took 4.4 quarts but it only takes 3.7 quarts. I poured in slightly under 4 quarts. The engine is a 1.5 in-line turbo (Honda Civic Si). It's reading past the fill line slightly. How bad is it? Do I need to pour some out? What am I risking? What symptoms should I be looking for?

Not pro knowl just knuckle dragging mechanic advice: run the car for a bit. Rev it up. Turn it off. Pull the dip stick. If there is no foaming you're fine.
