It just wont take 91 under load.^ this in addition to one or many of the following;Dirty Throttle body,dirty injectorsdirty fuel filerfuel pump on its way outboost solenoid could be screwyturbo bolts loose - can cause all of this due to lack of boost and overcompensating with fuellack of oil pressurebasically all the overlooked things in your regular servicing schedule by poor mechanics can result to the computer over-correcting everything as it is all computer controlled.best job you can do is go over all of these yourself as it is all cheap and easy stuff to do in the comfort of your own shed, and then when you go to the mechanic you can rule all of these simple things out and not get charges out the arse for them.

And as stated could have a tune for all you know.As for 91 my understanding was only if you cant get anything else and dont boost it as you should run a min of 95 for giving the thing abuse.
