I have been burning a small amount of oil. Maybe an "X" mark every1- 2 weeks. I do drive fairly agressive. I didnt burn a drop until I put my TP on, what do you guys think.

How many miles on your '04?
How aggressively do you drive?
What oil are you using now?
Are you sure you're not losing any from a slow leak ... like a loose oil filter?

Nothing to do with the test pipe...

Oil never comes close to your test pipe. Maybe you damaged something installing the test pipe.

the TP won't cause changes in oil consumption. You should try to quantify the consumption in terms of quarts per 1000 miles to figure out if it is worth worrying about.

Any other chnages made to the vehicle in recent times, change in weather conditions, did you change the type of oil ?

The more you Vtec,the more you'll burn oil...

Very true.
