I was told that i have to wire it to the ecm for a more accurate reading..... because of there only being one wire to the o2. anyone have any suggestions?

I've installed that guage in my RS, I hooked the signal wire with a wire tap to the Purple wire (D7) at the ecm. Using a wire tap keeps the original O2 wire intact, it just cuts the insulation a bit to the bare wire.. works great.. Along with the guage there are two other wires.. a Red one & black one.. I taped the red wire in with the power wire from the guages fuse, but make sure that you put a fuse holder between the guage and the power wire off the guage fuse. The Autometer guage requires a 5amp fuse, I used a 3amp, with no problems.. Since the guages fuse is 10amps... Then for the black wire I wanted to ground it with the dash ground, but didn't find it.. so for now I wired in a ground with a group of wires under the dash, just to the right of the fuse box. Hope this helps..

That's basically what I did too, just to confirm that...it's not that bad, I just had to test all the purple wires because I didn't have an accurate schematic. :\
