Have you tried searching the 3rd Gen forum? Spend a little time reading and cause you will find that one person on every forum who will flame you for not searching first. Not hating on you just offering friendly advise.

If the idle is only at start-up that should be normal. At least when the engine temp is cold. Don't know about the dash lights, mine aren't very bright even when turned all the way up so with out seeing it in person it's hard for me to say. As for the running rich part.... is it mostly doing so at idle? What are your mods so someone can tell you whether or not it's related to them.

If you dont know your car and dont have a fsm I would try to get of a hold of ihor or rich and see if they can get your back to healthy. I would not keep boosting it till you have your issues resolved.
All these cars run rich its there nature more so with a stock ecu. I would bet its your TPS. A tune up may help your situation as well.

as for you dash lights being dim and not responding to the dimmer switch. Make sure you don't have any aftermarket gauge lights wired in wrong, that will screw up your dimmer function and possible blow the dimmer switch circuitry
