where to put wideband O2
#1
i think you are suppost to but them as far back as possible.
here is my setup: pacesetter long tube headers, pacesetter off road y-pipe, 3 inch exhaust going to un known muffler then split into duels and out side of truck with tips before rear tire.
i am also planning on FI, sts style in front of the muffler.
so here is my options,
1. do i put two wideband O2's on the y-pipe after they meet the headers
2. do i put two wideband O2's on the y-pipe before they merge together
3. do i put one wideband O2 on the y-pipe after the two pipes merge
4. do i put one wideband O2 on before the turbo
5. do i put one wideband O2 on after the turbo before the muffler
6. do i put one wideband O2 on after the turbo and muffler
7. do i put one wideband O2 on before the tips the farthest away i can go

i kan draz rel good

Using two total, one on each bank, can be an advantage if there are side to side lean issues ( like the infamous #7 piston failures ). As long as you are not running cats ( off road Y-pipe says no ) then anywhere in front of the muffler is fine.

I Put mine in yesterday, The aem directions say at least 18" from the exhaust port.or with leaded fuel, or turbo & High exhaust temps then 36" min. but definatly before cats or any other obstruction. Remember to put them at an angle of 10* or more above horizontal. Certainly no need to put two in a common pipe, only before they converge together..
