In the past, I too experienced the sudden excessive oil consumption. Ever since going with "changing my PCV every other oil change" plus removing my EGR Valve about every 30k miles for cleaning with O2 sensor safe carb cleaner and putting in a breather after supercharger install....I've had no problems since either. Here are pictures from my gallery showing before breather and after breather install. Breather filter is the purplish colored one that looks kind of like a mushroom (toadstool)...lol.
before breather installed....air is pulled from elbow connected to MAF & airbox.

after breather installed...hose to inake/air filter is eliminated...eliminated hole in elbow by replacing (elbow/stock airbox) with custom air intake that doesn't have a hole.
