Well, my site is going through another re-design and all at the moment, so what I did was throw up the basic-edited howto that I did up in a temporary folder. I'll leave this file in the temp folder indefinately though:

ok, quick question here!!!! I got my A/F gauge and got it installed and wired in and everything! a buddy of mine told me that i should have hooked it up down at the Cat. Converter rather than at the exhaust manifold like i did! i figured i would get a better read out right there rather than down at the cat!!! does it matter where i have it or should i move it??? thanks

no problem man, glad to help. Don't have a habit of checking the tech section too often though. by the way, you could even cut off the rear O2 if you wanted, it's not essential to operation. My new exhaust (less cat converter) won't have it.

what year is yours??? i thought that the 96+ OBD2 cars needed that sensor or the check engine light will come on???? i have seen a test pipe replacement that mounts up to my manifold and replaces all the way back after the cat with tubin and no cat but I didn't want to set off my check engine light! seein as i don't have a header! I do have the 91-92 header but they cut it off at the 2 pipe so i am gonna have to have it custom made or go out and buy another header.
