Adding a Superchip will not alter the amount of oil your engine leaks. The only thing a Superchip does is alter the timing curve throughout the rpm range. I added a Superchip to mine and absolutely love it.
Also, you don't need to run premium grade fuel with the stock ignition system. The book says the engine will run on 87 octane - I ran mine on 89 (before the Superchip), since I pinged every once in a while on 87. With the Superchip, you will need to run premium.
You might also try running a synthetic blend oil (instead of full synthetic). This could help reduce your oil leakage.
