Try this and see if it helps you... could just be a relay

I got 12v from the car to seiloid but 2.4 v to the pump so I got that but will this problem cause the car to not rev past 2500 rpm?

That I don't know,but I would think fixing the known problem would be step 1 and possibly correct problem 2

If I'm only getting 5v to the air pump relay is the pcm bad?

No, you should be getting 12V to relay pin 1, if not, then poor connection somewhere from the engine bay fusebox, wiring, plugs?.. runs through a 30 amp fuse that is always hot...I would also check pin 4 ground. If you have a bad ground it will cause bad readings across the board.

Should I be getting 12 v to the tps at all times or just start up I'm only getting 5v tp it ?

Sorry, I don't know what the voltages should be at the TPS.. I have seen other's post that you should have less than 1 volt running at idle. From there it should adjust as the throttle is depressed

Hopefully somebody who knows tps better will chime in soon.
