When I'm driving along, people say that I have blue smoke coming from my exhaust pipe, especially when I step on it. Since I work at a dealership, they told me I am burning oil. I already figured that since my oil level keeps dropping on the dipstick and I have to put two quarts in every other week. Well, it's really getting to me now though because it's been doing it for about 5,000-8,000 miles, and I put on my new exhaust and it makes it all black on the outside.

Anyway, the real question is how do I know what is making my engine burn so much oil? Is it part of the valvetrain? Pistons? Piston rings? I mean two quarts of oil every 2 weeks is a lot right? If it's pistons, should I upgrade the pistons to higher compression pistons, since I want to go N/A anyway? How much will I be looking to spend if I dont do it myself? Am I losing horsepower due to lack of compression?

Anyway, any feedback would be appreciated!
