Nice! Congrats on the new car. I'll never understand why people (not you, the prior owner) put BFMICs on as one of their first mods.

Nice choice in wheels, I was looking at those myself. Not in red ha ha, but they're Work Meister knock offs and a very nice style wheel.

Get rid of those worm clamps and get T-bolt clamps. That could be part of your issue. Replace the worms on both sides...hot side and cold side.

^yes i will have to get some of those.
So a couple postes before this one i said something about it leaking... im not sure what i could be but when im driving the car will hold boost for first gear (about 13 psi) then i shift to second it dropes(10psi) then about 4k rpm it drops again (8psi). then when i get to third its only running at 4 psi and will not go any higher. what would cause this?

Initially, reset your PCM see if the issue still occurs.
Charge pipe not hooked up right
Severe boost leak
Lack of T-bolt clamps
Bad wastegate spring
Clogged catalytic converter
Bad turbo (one of the worst scenarios)
Head gasket/compression issue
ETC
