I wouldn't worry about sludge so long as you drive it fairly aggressively, fairly routinely. My understanding is our tendency to not drive these machines routinely at higher revs, engineered for consistent higher revs, is what can lead to problems. So just drive it like you stole it PS and some change the oil and more frequent intervals, too.
