My next question is about my Bassani O/R X-pipe. I put MIL eliminators on the rear O2s to compensate for the voltage difference. I read in a lot of other forums that people were having problems with MIL coming on because the the MIL eliminators dont work. I put mine in and they have worked perfect (runs a little rich but no MIL) and am wondering if the computer can still compensate for the voltage input its receiveing is there any reason to delete them in a special tune or if a special tune is required for better perfromance?
And if anybody wants to give a set of MIL elimantors a try I used the BBK P/N (BBK-1675), come two in a pack and work for Mustang Cobra and GT years 98-04.

RE: Bassani O/R X-pipe on my 98 Cobra
Im not quite sure of exactly what you're asking here, but if the MIL eliminators are keeping your CEL off, then that's all they are designed to do. Your rear o2s do not play a role in your vehicles air/fuel mixture, so I'm sure that's not why you are running rich.
Sometimes after the installation of a cat-less x-pipe, some people tend to confuse the unburnt fuel smell coming from the exhaust to be that the vehicle is now running rich. This is not the case. It's generally running exactly how it was before, only now (with not having the cats to burn off the excess fuel) It will smell a bit rich.
Hope this helps.

That's exactly what I needed to know. It's only a little rich so I'm sure that's what it is and since my rear O2s aren't throwing a code ad guessing that a custom time to delete them is unnecessary.
