OK, so this is the last problem I have ran into. Car runs PERFECT at idle. Step on the gas and you get nothing, step on it too much and it obviously dies. A couple weeks ago it didn't do this. MAF is plugged in. TPS is plugged in. It is a 1g throttle body on a 2g...Like I said ran, fine before. All of sudden it just doesn't get any gas. I am thinking the problem might be the TPS...Or at least hope so. I am going to double check the tps and make sure that it is where it should be and such, but just looking to see if anybody else has any ideas before I head out to check on it. I know boost leaks, I already checked that and all the vacuum hoses are brand new. Worked perfect before...Now I have no throttle at all. RPMs will not come up, car just dies.

i'd say ding with the MAF... sounds like its not seeing the air flow.

Yeah, that is certainly a possibility as well.

I say test the TPS with a multimeter and make sure it is positioned correctly, then look into the MAF.

Pretty much what I was planning on doing Matt. It is possible the tps got bumped when I was hooking up some of the vacuum lines...I don't think it did, but who knows.
