How exactly do you get out of limp mode on an AWD talon 5spd ive tried jus about everything in my power
 
The car is running extremely rich I replaced the coils and connectors check engine light is on Ive checked my safc cleaned my mass air flow sensor checked my plugs and wires injectors I just don't know how to resolve this matter
 
You say check engine light is on... so what are the codes?

Limp mode could be from a plethora of things. Missing or bad Knock sensor, bad MAF, missing or bad O2 sensors (pre and after cat), broken or slightly unplugged CAS sensor, loose injector plugs, MASSIVE boost leak somewhere or clogged to all hell fuel filter. And 100 more things, but maybe start with these?
 
If you unplug the MAF does it make any difference in the way it runs? Limp mode should switch over to a fuel and timing map based solely on engine RPM and be pig rich.
