Replace the PVC valve and see how it goes, it maybe that simple a fix....good luck
I have a 00 with 46k and it uses no oil at all but my 02 with 50k miles used a quart every 1,000 miles or so. The 00 compression is about 250 on all 4 and the 02 was around 175 across if I remember right.
Has anyone done a pole on compression numbers compared to oil consumption on AP1 cars? It would be interesting to see if higher compression AP1s use less oil or not then that of lower compression AP1s.

Summary:
- you're gonna have to check oil very frequently. Get used to it
- change your pcv, see if it helps
- change oil brand, see if it helps
- either way, get used to higher rate of oil consumption
