Default where to install wideband bung '15 LTZ ?

anyone with a 2015 Silverado LTZ 5.3L

where did you have the wideband exhaust bung installed?

Permanent install...I am thinking somewhere near an oem o2 sensor in a downpipe from exhaust manifolds???

Any pics would be great..as long as YOUR install resulted in good wideband readings

thanks

I haven't seen my son's truck yet, flying to Florida and need to have this done tomorrow morning...lol

Right near the factory narrowbands before the cats is a good spot.

I read some are installing the Wideband in existing bung, AFTER cat with acceptable result.
Is there any reason NOT to do this ?

After the cat is not an acceptable spot. It's a terrible spot really. The cat will prevent the sensor from telling you the true readings. Before the cat is the only acceptable location.
