Overboost is on a distinguished road
With the multitude of issues you have with your X, I would approach each one methodically.

Start with the fail safe modes. This is usually a voltage problem within the system. I would connect a multimeter to the battery voltage where you can see it while driving. If it is around 12V or lower when driving instead of 14.5V, the system will throw the fail safe modes. If you do have a low voltage issue, check your power steering reservoir and make sure it is not leaking from the hoses beneath it, they will leak directly on the alternator on the 3.0L and cause problems with charging.

Next, replace that broken MAF sensor and replace any obvious broken vacuum hoses, then clear all those codes and see what comes back. Take each problem and solve them one at a time, as others have mentioned, we have a plethora of knowledge here and can help.
