IF and thats a big if (what makes you think your burning oil through the piston rings) you are burning oil through your piston rings do not run nitrous. &nbsp;To replace piston rings pretty much means your rebuilding your engine.

defiantely a good question.. &nbsp;What makes you think it's your rings? &nbsp;or that your buring oil to begin with? &nbsp;are you sure your not leaking it?
