Is there anything did wrong with the tempi (I don't know if it should be tempos or tempi) that I did? (They are hidden) If so..can some in gave me a give me a % that I can raise the tempo during the pentuplet?? (Ex. raise it up 20 b.p.m. each time)

I raised the tempo in the pentuplet by 28 b.p.m 120 + 28 = 148

If you want 5 notes to play in the time of 4, multiply the original tempo by 5/4.
New tempo goes before the figure, restore original tempo after the figure.

Let's see.. 5/4 + 1.25 = 150. So you must multiply by one and a quarter. Well, if you multiply by one..you get the same tempo..so...you must add a quarter's worth of the tempo to have your new tempo. presto! So for example..If my tempo is 60...I add 15 because 60 X 1/4 (.25) = 15. Check it..15 X 4 + 60. Presto!!

For analysis, I cut your tempos to 1/3 and converted your quintuplet notes to tied 64ths.  Your left hand quarter notes in bar 2 are correctly placed, both aurally and visually.

To get the right playback, mute the left hand part, copy it to a new staff, and tie the quarter notes in bar 2 to the sixteenths.  This will give you the playback you want.  Make this "playback" staff invisible.

Right hand part:
