If you are losing that much oil, perform a compression test. I assume that there are no drips.

a straight-through exhaust will have nothing to do with how much oil your car burns...

- how much oil did you put in in the first place?
- how much oil is showing on the dipstick?
- look for puddles where you park your car to see if the oil is just dripping out
- check to make sure the oil filter is screwed on tight enough, same with the oil drain bolt
- just look all around the engine bay for oil leaks
- look at the your exhaust (not the pipes, the stuff that comes out), if it has a very slight blue-ish tint to it, you're burning oil

and I agree with Dogginator, do a compression test and see what your numbers are like

Bad valve stem seals will produce white smoke under load, not black smoke. Black smoke means it's burning fuel, not oil. Burning oil produces a thick white smoke.

I would recommend doing a simple compression check on all cylinders and comparing them across the board.
