s4 rtek 2.1 lean in boost, also tps not reading 100% at wot??

so this past weekend ive been chasing a problem that just arose, light throttle a/f seem ok, but gets leaner and leaner into boost, where as it used to stay rich.

idle around 12.0 a/f light throttle/cruise between 12-14a/f starting to get into boost at low throttle it stays in the mid 12.s then just starts getting leaner 13s up into 14s into boost
if I just mash it at low rpm as boost is building it shoots right up into the high 13-mid 14s and stays there.

it used to stay in thie mid to low 12s when coming into boost <2psi , then go into the lower 11's in boost.

I was thinking it might be a fuel pressure problem so I replaced the filter, and swaped pumps with my other t2. no change.

then I noticed on the palm when maxing out the tps (its an s4 with narrowband) it only shows it at 94% on the rtek logger, I swaped tps with one on my other t2 and that only showing 97% as well. I did a run with no tps at all pluged in which I thought should make it default to 100% but it still did the same results. tps is adjusted correctly at idle.

could the tps not being 100% cause something like that?

cooelnt temp and air temp sensors all seem to be giving normal readings. as well

Have you rewired your fuel pump? or Bypassed the fuel pump resistor?

do you have a good vacuum source for your fpr? only reason i ask is that i had mine running to non-ported vacuum and the fpr wouldn't read boost and it would lean out in boost. maybe also check for vacuum leaks or a clogged injector?

Just wondering if you ever solved your lean issue?

Mine does that in the lower gears when I have less than 1/4 tank of gas, but, I know what it is.
