    Firstly check for any vacuum leaks, if there are none, you could need a new mass airflow meter...

    i would check the EVAP canister purge valve. this is behind the air filter with 2 hoses. check for leaks.

    Then check the HO2S (heated oxygen sensor) in each downpipe make sure the wires look ok, to behonest i would not expect them both to have gone down and if one had then only one bank would be playing up.
