Where on downpipe to put wideband?
Where would be best to put the wideband 02 on my TTA's downpipe. A is about 12" from the turbo. B is about 24-30" from the turbo.

I went with "B", hoping to increase the longevity of the 02 sensor.

I may have choose A + a few more inches. Its a nice straight run of pipe and would have uniform airflow across sensor. B is just after a tight bend and would have turbulence. Sensor would read "pockets" of air, but it should still work since the gas should be thoroughly mixed by then.
Mine used to be 10" or so from turbo outlet and lived just fine.
