random miss but no code please help(long)

ok, ive posted on this a few times and ive tried throwin a few parts at her with no avail. so here it goes again we'll see if anyone can help.
ill start with my current set up i have a 97 SS A4 3.23's 275/40/17's LT1. i have ramair with a K&N filter, descreened my MAF, 1LE intake elbow, airfoil, stock throttle body w/ TB bypass, i did the FRA mod to get cooler air into the engine bay, i have a 160 stat, BBK UD pulley, taylor 8mm wires, new coil, new denso iridium plugs, new AC Delco o2's with extensions, i have 1 3/4" jet hot longtubes coated with no emissions, no EGR, no AIR, block off plates on both of the holes in the back of the intake, i have a custom 2 1/2" primaries into a 3" collector Y-pipe, i have a 3" cut out after the Y between it and the 3" custom flowmaster catback, i just put in the OBD1 conversion with custom tune for my mods from PCM4LESS with an LT4 KM.
so far that all the mods i have.
now heres the prob. the car runs like a bat outta hell in open loop(warm up cycle) when i first start it. after that when it switches to closed loop and starts to read off the o2's to adjust short term and long term fuel consumption it picks up a miss. its a very random miss and happens on almost all cylinders. prob is it doesnt throw a code.
i work at firestone and our lead tech looked the car over for 2 days and couldnt figure it out. ive sprayed the wires down at night with a fine mist and they dont arch out anywhere the plugs i just put in hours ago and gapped them myself so i know they are correct and good. i just dont know. its almost like she is runnin too lean. b/c it doesnt start to miss untill it goes from ipw 3.2 during warm up to ipw 2.9 after. i cant figure it out and its driving me insane. so any help would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

Maybe I missed something obvious here.... but there is no misfire code in OBD-I.

Sure your O2 extensions are connected correctly? You didn't burn them on your headers? Since it only starts after closed loop, I'd look at them.

i just checked and they are perfect. i even have some kevlar like wrap on them that is heat resistant and fore proof on them so they wont burn.
