Default Oil consumption while at wot???

Well, the car has always been blowing alittle smoke here and there while WOT, but nothing major its just got to where that smoke is annoying, and its actually gotten alittle bit worst..
I can drive normal, and down shift and hit vtec and no smoke, its only at around 6-9k that blue smoke is noticeable from my exhaust..
I have no leaks, CR test is around 260psi across the board, Should i do a leakdown test to see? Valvestem seals are brand new, i just redid the head about 2 months ago.. There's no leaks and to be honest with you, i haven't really lost any oil, infact i lost more oil in a 400 mile trip, then i did racing a whole night..
The walls of my block are pretty great condition, minor, minor scuffing but i'm sure thats normal, car is pretty well tuned as well by me, on crome pro, its 13.0 WOT AFR..and its just annoying.. I do have a breather setup on the car, but its from the pcv(black box) to a catch can, then into the intake manifold.
Hardly any oil in that, and also in the manifold there's no oil either.. There's no leaks.. I'm thinking its my oil control rings but it wouldn't be this much oil..and i dont think it would hold compression that good either..
I'm still getting some major, major crankcase pressure which i think is creating blow by, i can whip off my oil pan and if i get on it enough some oil tends to "worm" out the sides..not alot and it doesn't do it perfusly just small, small amount... Any idea guys? i'm stuck really lol..

sounds like high crankcase pressures like you said.
Having the catch can routed after th factory black box is not going to help much. I think you need to vent the block more like the Endyn setup or even the vented valvecover setup.
Too much crankcase will definately cause blowby.And blowby will definately cause excessive crankcase pressure.
Compression rings can be perfect but if the oil rings are bad,youre gonna burn oil...
Good luck

I picked up a catch can from Endyn. You vent the block in two places and it seems to work very well.
I only had mine on for a week before my headgasket blew and i pulled the motor.
It did seem to rev easier or maybe it was just in my mind.
For me, it was an oil pan gasket that kept leaking. Could not figure it out until I related my oil consumption issues and learned about crankcase pressures!
