I am going to be ordering a wideband, cause the car is running way off. but anyway I wanted to know where the O2 sensor is supposed to go ahead of time, and does the LM1 come with the typical 18mm sensor? Any other advice and info would be greatly appreciated. also what #'s should I be looking for when tuning?

the o2 sensor goes downstream in the exhaust of your primary o2 sensor (not in place of it).

I know it doesn't replace the factory O2's, but does it matter where it is? Can I put it into a cat removal pipe, or is that too far down stream?
Also while I have this post going, what about EGT's, what temps should I look for, I'm thinking nothing over 1400? My temp sensor is about 5" from the turbo on the downpipe, and I have a log mani, if that makes a dif.

The directions on my PLX wideband say no closer than 24", but do not have a "no farther than" measurement. I would say before the cat, maybe 26"-30" away? Not sure on this one....exhaust still needs welded....
innovate say 18" away from the turbo cause of the heat
^^^ That would be about right with mine too, as the 24" on the PLX Devices sensor is "away from the end of the exhaust manifold". Probably the same type of sensor.
in addition, those sensors don't have a long lifespan. They will charge you $80 for a new sensor should it go out. However, you can get the same sensor from a Volvo dealership for $30
