Angry FD starting problem

CD player works when key is on "accessories", but when i turn to "on" the beeping dies out and the apexi boost and water temp guage goes out of wack, and the dash lights become really dim. need help from you guys at rx7club.com ... also the car was flooded about 4 months ago just before i put it into storage, i unflooded it without taking out the spark plugs. it sat for a while and i started it up twice and both times it ran worse and worse because im assuming the spark plugs are fouled. i haven't pulled them out to look at them yet. about two weeks ago i tried starting the car and it ran terrible and died out and wouldn't want to refire even after going through the unflooding procedure ( not taking out the spark plugs tho ). anyway today i custom put in some new headlight bulbs ( meant for a honda crx or civic, but i made them work). and then i turn the key to "on" to see how the bulbs work and they came on but like i first said the boost and water temp guage went out of wack and the beeping dies out. its a 1991 from japan. mods are: hardpiping, apexi boost guage and water guage and that peice that sits ontop of the steering colum, 4" apexi N1 exhaust and suspension

Heres a link to youtube where i have a vid showing me put the key in, you can hear the beeping, i turn key to "acc" position, CD player turns on fine, and then you can see the boost guage is pointing straight up cause of the first time i turned the key to "on", and the water temp goes wacko when i turn key to "on" ------ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMNg7Rqm_FE
