Dan took a look at Eclipseguy12's car and what he found was that it had no coolant except for the water he added, so he flushed that and replaced the t-stat for him and it's still having cooling issues so he suspects the water pump has gone bad.
Also there is only 1 bolt holding the 02 housing to the exhaust side of the turbo. The plugs are shot and need replacing and the safc was set to a couple of wrong settings. So once the cooling issues and exhaust issues are fixed, they will move on to getting it tuned. He pulled some fuel here and there, made a few pulls, it hit 20psi with the bc off and it pulls pretty hard.
Dan would like to thank Jesus and Frank and everyone else for their input, Jesse appreciates it.

^I still have the set i got from Dan. Forgot to put them back in. Actaully now that I think of it, ever since i put the iridiums in, my boost gauge needle shakes. Could the plugs be the reason or the weather/ other?

It's been on my list of things to do for 8 months now. Lots of big factors, although assuming the new ideas work out, I should have my car up and going a lot better and hopefully soon.

umm idk it could be a variety of things, but yes that could be a possibility

No problem! Glad Dan was able to look into what the cars problems were. It's hard to tell from just reading the problems on the computer and trying to analyze and come up with solutions. It's 1 step closer now to running 100%. Good job Dan!
Jesse hope all the other problems are resolved soon so you can enjoy the car to its fullest.
