The car is a 1.5 liter 4 cyl. approx. 170,000 miles on it with 5 speed trans. I have to add like 2 qts. of oil to it since I had the oil changed 2000 miles ago it does not seem to be leaking any oil nor is it seem to be burning it, at least its not coming out of the tail pipe if it is burning it. Any Ideas where its going?

With that much oil gone it would be very easy to spot a leak.So its burning it.
