Hey, Looking for some advice for building up abs & peck(spelling?) at home because I dont have the time at the moment to go to the gym but will in a few weeks. Im 18 year old male have 9.2% body fat.

Abs:
I have been stop start kinda thing with building abs for the last two year and I only would do sit ups but in the past year I had to do endurance test by doing as many sit ups in 2mins(got 109) and I found that I was working my upper legs muscles more then my abs. So I have decided to crunches instead now. So for normal crunches I do 2 sets of 30 and for reverse crunches 2 sets of 25. I have been doing this for a few weeks now and havent seen no real change.

Pecks:
I have been doing 2 sets of 25reps of press ups. I have tried diamond press ups but I think they are the same thing but just work on your balance.

So I ask you what am I doing wrong & how will improve on this?
 
Cardio with diet for your abs. Also be sure to hit your obliques.

I'm hoping you're talking about pecs. Here's a good chest exercise for home:

Chair pushups - Get 3 chairs. Put two about 3 feet apart and the last chair closer to your feet (depending on how tall you are, about 4-5 feet away). Put your feet on the last chair and your hands on the other. These push ups give you a better range of motion than regular push ups and work your pecs well. Put something like a bookbag on your back for added resistance.
 
Yep. What big angry hippo said is a good way, I'm tried it before, but felt unsafe doing it (I have crappy chairs).

Another good type of pushup is by putting your feet on a small tabel, or foot rest, than doing them with your feet, higher than your head. It puts more weight onto your upper body, and abs. With normal pushups, a lot of weight is put on your legs.
