Hey, I just moved for the summer and I now have about a 160km (100 mile) drive one way to work.
Normally I fill with Ultra94 octane gas, but since I am driving 95% of my gas on the highway, I next to never see boost. So, am I wasting money here, by still using 94 octane? Or should I be using just 91 octane, and saving a couple bucks a tank?

we run 91 on the west coast
since it is as high as we get
if you go lower than 91 take the s/c belt off
Personally, I wouldn't put anything lower than 91 into my car now that I'm boosted. If you really want to run a lower octane, I'd do what 97cavie suggested and take the s/c belt off.
Blown.
I am not asking about going lower then 91.
I am asking if there is any reason for me to keep running 94 when I rarely get into boost anymore?
The GTP loves 94 when I am driving hard (which is really, really, rare these days), but is it even worth it for highway driving?

No, 94 isn't worth it if you're not seeing much boost. Save a few bucks a tank and get 91. It can start to add up if you really think about it.
