it shouldnt mess up the computer or idle but make sure you disconnect the battery for at least 20 minutes to reset the computer

an off road H-pipe will not mess up your computer. just disconnect the negative battery cable while you are installing it and you will be fine.

You should be fine but doesnt he have OBDII because I though they started putting those in Mustangs in 94 or 95?
