I am almost positive its the tune, did the drive cycle 5 times

My 05 showed exactly as yours did when I brought it in for an emissions test. The solution was to get an emissions tune. Either your tuner or possibly you loaded up the incorrect file.

Kind of in a pickle there, I know I got a tune from AM with all the emission stuff on.
Went for a 40mile ride through the drive cycle and passed the OBD part of the inspection with ready everything.
Think you should talk to them again, if the o2 sensors are off it would say not ready, not "not supported".
Like mine did before I got the emissions tune.

I thought not ready means the drive cycle wasnt completed and not supported means either its off or manipulated

Sounds like the regular tune is the one you want. They may have been mislabeled.

Have you tried the regular tune and complete the drive cycle? You may have to do it a few times. If done correctly the only thing that may fail is the EGR (something with SCT if I remember correctly) but in most places you can fail one test and still pass.

Unsupported means off to my knowledge and experience.

You are allowed to have one not ready. Try to complete the driving cycle for everything that is not ready except for the EGR. You will be pissing in the wind trying to get the EGR ready...at least that's what happened to me on my 05 V6. Then I learned I didn't have to do it...

Do i have to redo the drive cycle steps for the monitors that are already ready or just the steps for the ones that arent ready

Would a bad 02 senor (up stream) keep the cats and 02 from readying?

Should just have to redo the steps for the not ready ones. A bad O2 will usually make the car run poorly and would cause you not to pass emissions as well.
