Well code 22 is the baro sensor, did you add one to your system? 54 is intake temp which I think is in the VAM but I don't remember
If all that's there I would verify you have those particular wires in the right spot

Scott you was right. Got the wiring redone. But it still is sluggish. 1 thing I have to replace clutch. I can't seem to get timing right. It doesn't want to run at 10. It likes it between 1-5.
When I use the old scanner with KOER before trying to reset timing it would die after WOT
Engine compartment is jammed cause I have AC. LOL too hot in south without it
New codes. KOEO. 54, 81, 82, 83, 84 I blocked egr so it doesn't have one. So 54 ACT out of range high, 81 air management cicuit 2 failure.
KOER
24 ACT out of range
41 HUGO lean
74 didnt recognized brake switch
77 didnt recognize WOT
The WOT I floored it and let off when 10 showed up on code reader so really don't k ow how to do it

The hot ticket for clutch is the Centerforce stock replacement friction disc and their weighted pressure plate, I'm a fan... if you do a search for me and centerforce you'll likely find the part numbers, it's about $300 for those parts from Summit...
I don't know how sluggish you're talking but that's a lot of compressed air volume so you'll have some turbo lag, mine has some lag and I don't even have an intercooler... before boost it's just a N/A 8:1 compression 4 cylinder so not spunky...
