Let me ask you.. WBo2 bung.. to close?!?
In this pic you can see the tip of the plug that is plugging the second o2 bung. The bung is on the opposite side of the pipe that is shown, this is the sellers pic.. I'm to lazy to take another pic since you can see where the bung is anyways.
Now to my question. I'm thinking judging by what I've read that the placement might be to close for my Aem Uego wbo2 sensor, what do you guys think. I really don't want to install another bung down near the cat if i don't have to, but if it will save my wbo2 sensor from failing up prematurely i surely will place it further down.
Let me know , thanks.

The issue with wideband placement is about temperature. The cat is a bad place to measure from because its placement varies from car to car. The source of heat is the engine. That is why the AEM and LC-1 provide a recommended distance from the turbo/engine. The turbo can be assumed to be placed very close to the engine, so it is a good datum to use. The only recommendation related to the cat is to definitely install the WBO2 ahead of the cat so that you read correct AFR's.
