You said fuel tank was rusted but only correction made was new pump...meaning the tank is still full of rust. It's probably clogging everything up.

Default Appreciate all the advice guys

I ordered fpr and gonna try a fuel cleaner even tho I'm skeptical but I figured it cant hurt.

Also he said he replaced fuel pump with a quantum fuel pump and fuel filter and cleaned the tank but I looked in there and it still has a bit of rust.
Im gonna pull the tank and clean it with vinegar just to be sure. Also thinking of getting oem fuel pump. heard mixed thing about the quantum pumps

Honestly not to sure where to hook up a fuel pressure gauge or what the correct psi should be for it.
Definitely getting new tires. Saw a nice set of pirelli angel st for 200

Default Figured it out

So I got her running right. It was the quantum fuel pump it worked but idk if it got clogged or just wasn't enough pressure but when I put a OEM one no more bogging

Yeah, with mechanical stuff, I've found you usually get what you pay for and that OEM is the way to go.

Glad to hear you got 'er sorted out!
