What material are you printing with?
That actually looks like all three of what you said, so you have a good start on fixing it.

Im having a hard time calibrating the extruder. It seems like its over extruding but when im calculating Then i get 93mm so im under extruding? :O What the?

And im calibrating with 100mm and my steps are 151.9, and now it tells me to use 202 steps instead, but isnt that just gonna make the extrusion Wiese if its already over extruding?

Have you properly set your Z-axis height and leveled your bed?
