Is there a way after installing a ROM to wipe the system app data?

If you flash a new nightly, you don't have to wipe anything. You can wipe the cache and dalvik if you want, but you really don't need to.
thank man

Never a problem.
Remember the golden rule: Before flashing "ANYTHING", be sure to wipe at least the cache & dalvik. Doing so can help prevent unnecessary troubleshooting.

If i reflash the same rom on top of the other do i have to perform a wipe? And if i dont do a wipe will i lose my apps and data during the process?

No wipe would be needed and your data would be safe. I'd recommended wiping cache/dalvik as well.

OK when I boot into cwm and I have zip files that I down loaded and put into cwm and flash them and stuff but they are not in my root browser. But when I boot into recovery they are there

Are you using the actual app called root browser? Also are you looking at the same directory?

You're looking for old files from when you were on the lg software..
In root explorer they are in
Data/media/
On my s3 I would use TB and back up all my apps and data and when I flash a new ROM I would just do a batch reinstall of all my ****. Now I can't do that because I can't move apps to my SD card and I had stuff on TB but when you do a full wipe you lose it all. So I tried moving the back up to my SD card and it will not read that back up of TB on my SD card

I don't follow you...when I full wipe it doesn't format my internal sdcard..
Now again when I switched to cm10 from stock I had to manually go to
data/media/ and I had to move my entire titanium folder to the new internal sdcard location and then titanium found my backups fine.
I think he wiped the internal SD.

When I flash a Rom I should do a full wipe? The one that says wipe all user data I wipe cache and devik

Yes you need to do that..normally i do
Wipe all user data
Flash cm10.1
Flash gapps
Wipe all user data
Reboot system
I want to format my phone to clean all the crap files iv accumulated. If I format through twrp, will it just reinstall the current rom I'm running? Did this before on my s4, just want to make sure. Thanks guys

Like internal storage you meant? I always do that on top of cache and dalvik wipe to get a full clean install and no trace of previous rom. To be on safe side always have nand backup when doing that.

Yeah like if I go to wipe, then select all except system or that also?

Factory reset, advance wipe, then I wipe cache, dalvik, system, data and internal storage. I have all my back ups in external card including copy of titanium backup for data. Then I flash any custom rom.
