your oil light is most likely just because your oil pump isnt spinning fast anough to produce enough oil pressure when you are bogging out. whats your afr doing when this happens? it could be a vacuum leak, as well as an iacv. is your idle surging? if so, you need to park it with evoscan and adjust the biss properly to the target idle rpm in the rom. i would start doing a boost leak test 1st though and try to find a leak
