So I've searched but can't seem to find the answer that I'm looking for.

To be specified I'm trying to find out exactly why there are so many 6mt's burning oil and not the auto's.

What are the differences between a rev-up motor and a non-revup.

From what I know.

- Higher redline (7200)
- Few more HP, Less TQ
- Exhaust variable timing
- Bigger OEM intake (more air-flow)
- Different ECU

- Someone said stronger rods and that the engine is built a little stronger?

- Apparently the problem with rev-ups is that the rings don't seal properly. The few auto's out there who consumed mentioned that they would down shift and keep the RPM's in high range.
Do the Auto's and 6mt NON-REVUP engines use the same pistons and rings as the REV-UP models?

What if the Rev-Up's don't shift pass 6800 (non-revup limit). Will there still be oil consumption? Does it start consuming when driven hard (excessive redlining, downshifting, etc.)

Has anyone actually babied the car to see if it would still consume? (Not during break-in)

Although I believe there is something wrong about the production of the Rev-Ups I also think that it's from how the car is driven. Almost every car will burn oil when driven hard.

What are the differences in the engine itself? I'm assuming it has been answered before. I would appreciate it if someone would enlighten me in this subject or direct me where I could find some answers.

Thanks
