Is it pinging from too much timing advance for the fuel you are running?

This is the craziest thing I have ever heard of.
I would go back and put a different tune in and see what happens. There should be 3 of them.

the tune isn't going to burn oil.

something else is wrong.

now...what could the tune affect that would cause you to burn oil that goes away when you go back to stock tune?

have you checked the common issues? open the TB and look down into the intake, is it dry or wet?
