It's doing it mostly in the city but does it on the highway too.. It's also getting terrible gas mileage and the idle is seems really low

You did put the oxy sensors back into your new exhaust, right? All you need is the front (pre-cat) ones. The ones after the cat can get tossed into the scrap pile with no effect on the engine but you'll get a fault code since the computer sees an open circuit.
