AFR mostly rich, erratic at times

Just developed this issue today and being that this is my first turbocharged car I would like to ask for some help diagnosing possibilities.
  1. When I cold start the car, everything is fine at idle.
  2. When I start to drive the car at normal throttle, the AFR tends get pegged at 10 after a minute.
  3. Come to a stop and now my idle is 10 for AFR.
  4. Now low throttle and normal throttle driving has awful response and is still at 10.
  5. Every now and then the AFR gets back to normal or almost normal for ~30 seconds, and then it will go back to 10 AFR.

After some research I've found a broad list of issues it might be:
  • Air filter (new one shipped tomorrow)
  • MAF dirty (about to go buy cleaner and spray it)
  • Boost leak (after MAF?)
  • Fuel pump (I already have a 485LPH brand new sitting at home)
  • Spark plugs (20,000 miles on the same plugs, never replaced since turbo setup)
  • Injectors
I was hoping I could get it narrowed down a bit more before I start throwing money at it.
