A bit, but doing the mod doesn't negate the need to replace the CCV. I remember him saying the CCV system will still need to be replaced periodically. Since a whole new CCV system is (probably) similar in price to what this solution will be, I'd rather just replace it once and never have to worry about it again.
I may have to revisit the catch can idea if this O2Pilot thing doesn't work out, but I haven't given it enough time to have made a determination on it yet. My first go around after doing the mod resulting in about 2k miles before a top-up, which is significantly better. But, this time around, my oil light was on after just 1100 or so miles, so now I once again don't know WTF is going on.
I'm willing to bet the reason your oil consumption went up again is because the ccv went bad. Mine is so bad right now that I got the oil level light after 400 miles. I replaced by ccv about an year and a half ago and I can count the number of times I drove the car for less than 10 min when the engine was cold because I avoided short trips as much as possible but the damn thing still went bad, realized this when i saw mayo when I tried to do the O2pilot mod. Now I'm sort of convinced that even a 20 min drive is not enough when the ambient temperatures are cold (which is the same time as your daily commute right?). So now I can't decide between replacing with OEM CCV, GAS CCV or catch can.
