Well i changed the tb and tps, no fault codes now.
Tighted boost pipes from i/c to 3000 pipe, all were fine.
Replaced filter and fuel pump. (not sure if i need to do the j tube mod?)
Put new plugs in
checked maf sensor by unplugging it.
Need to do timing check and exhaust blockage check
On a side note, the previous owner has badly repaired what im sure is the water temp sensor wire, ill have to redo that, that wouldnt make the car run crap if it wasnt connected?
I want a devorced downpipe from tuebo, seen some on ebay from ca, they any good, heard theres good gains?
Thats about it so far. Car was sat for a year when i bought it, that could cause the cat to collapes maybe?
Thanks again for all help.

You don't need to do the j tube mod, that's for cars making more power/flowing more fuel than stock.
Check your timing already, it's probably not right. Not that annoying to do either.
If you have no cats, I doubt you have an exhaust blockage of any sort. If you have the stock DP then yes you do, and I'd replace it with a DDP just because that's what you seem to want to do eventually anyways.
Depends which one. The one that goes to the ECU? It will be stuck in warm-up mode, which isn't the end of the world. It won't cause the problems you are seeing.
The one that goes to the dash? No, you just won't see what temperature it is, the gauge will spike.
Some people have had good results with ebay DDPs but I wouldn't do it.
The next thing you should do is check your timing, please come back with results on that
