Your probably good, I don't know much about the Xcals though, like if you can go in and change your parameters like you can with the Diablosport. If you told them all your suff then you are probably ready to go. The exensions just connect to your O2 sensors, since they will be farther back, I guess you will need them anyway even if you don't get MIL eliminators. Can you turn off your rear O2 sensors in your state or do you have emissions tests and stuff?
Safe bet; Get the MIL eliminators and O2 extensions so you don't have to turn off the rear O2 sensors so you don't have to worry about the tuner or emissions.

You dont need to buy MIL's your tuner can turn them off dont waste your money. Also I dont know if your decent in electrical work but all you need to do is add some wire to lengthen your stock 02 sensors no need for $$$ when a few bucks of wire and crimps can do the same job.

okie dokie, so i'll just get the O2 sensor extender things. and i'll just turn off the Rear O2 sensors, but if i do that will i need to buy the O2 extender sensors for the Headers?

No, do what Spike said, you should try to extend the wires yourself before spending money to do it. You need to keep the O2 sensors connected to the headers or else you will have an open hole. On my V6, one of my O2 sensor's wire was cut but since I had them turned off it didn't matter.

Do you even know what your smog laws are like? Long tube headers won't pass smog, so unless you have a hook up you won't be passing. With all the money you have spent so far, you could already have supercharged your car.

okie dokie, thanks . i'll be tearing the full exhaust off this weekend or the beggining of the week then wait for the new stuff to come (headers and mid-pipe). been thinking about switching my exhaust out to MAC too so everything will bolt right up. hmmmm

will i need one set of these or 2? http://www.americanmuscle.com/bbk-o2...harnesses.html cause i saw 2 sensors on each side. these are the headers that will be put on http://www.stangmods.com/PhotoGaller...1789%2DCERAMIC are there 2 spots for 2 sensors? cause i see 2 things sticking out.

Did you not read what people already told you about the o2 extensions? Either buy the extensions or wire it yourself with longer wires. Either way they to be extended to reach the o2s. You should just need one set. You need them to extended so they can reach and fit into your midpipe. The others will fit into the header itself.
