You have a twin turbo EJ20... so Its a bit hard to find solid info on the maintenance schedule but you could follow the USDM WRX EJ20 maintenance schedule

Depends a lot on the type of oil you're running.
I'd say (blanket statement here)
Engine Oil:
City driving: 3000 miles
Hwy driving: 5000 miles for standard, 8,000 for synthetic
Transmission & Diff oil:
30,000 miles.

Just check the oil levels periodically when the engine is cold. I go 3500-4000 miles between changes on my turbo. Might not be strictly necessary, but oil changes are cheaper than a new engine, lol.
