the egr is removed..there was a small leak in the exhaust side plug but i repaired and the lim side also got hosed with no improvement. i dont hear any more exhaust leaks but if i did have one would my car act like it had a vac leak?...also is it possible that putting in the headers cracked the heads?

Nah You didn't crack the heads. If theirs an exhaust leak at the rear collector slip joint(not sure what headers you have) that's big enough it can Skew the 02 sensors reading because it draws in air.

speed daddy headers the cheap ones on sale in the for sale section...checked the collector and dont feel a leak but if it was drawing air i guess i wouldnt...

will a faked out o2 sensor cause the car to idle like it has a bad vacuum leak though?
