    Wideband placement

    getting ready to finally install my wideband on my L83. I have the Speed Engineering long-tubes. it has an extra bung in the middle of the Y-pipe. Will that work? Or, do I need to relocate my upstream 02 to that location and install wideband further upstream? the wideband I bought is the AEM X-Series UEGO with obdII connector. Just curious on wheres the best location for this before I install it.

    The extra hole in the headers is perfectly fine. Just make sure the connection point before the sensor is leak free and you are good to go.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.

    Didn’t see it mentioned, but you want the sensor before cats (if you’re running them).

    I have the OBD2 wideband, it just plugs into the OBD2 port and the MPVI plugs into that. Obviously the wideband still requires a power/ground. Pick the correct channel to view the wideband and that is it. Everytime I hop in my truck with HP Tuners it's already in my channels list and logs it right away, no hassle at all.
