"For turbocharged or supercharged engines, insufficient octane will also lead the engine management system to curtail the amount of boost which in turn defeats the purpose of these engines."

I was wondering if this may be why I used to see 7 psi boost and now it's down to 6 or less. Perhaps I may try a tank or two of the new 94 octane.
