IACV not plugged in? why?
Fix all the problems you know of, then tackle the problems you can't figure out.

Also, it's turbo'd - so that means it had to have been somewhat tuned to run boost.
If it hasn't been tuned, or is running a stock ECU, you probably don't want to take the RPMs above 4000 until you do get it tuned. Pretty stupid if you boost untuned.

Could just be a distributor related problem - thats usually where to look if you can't rev past a certain point. Take care of that IACV problem first.

And check the codes to find out what other problems you have.

if i plug the iac then it wont go passed 4 grand with it off then it would drives real good but then the only thing is at idel it stays at 3 to 4 grand
