wideband thread question
I saw a thread here somewhere with a link to a site that sells just the threaded o2 "bung" that can be welded anywhere along the exhaust pipe. I would find the link for ya but I'm off to work

Move it 3 feet downstream.

I don't have the sensor yet, I can get the bung in a kit with the sensor. But thanks anyways.

The corksport downpipe has it about a foot and half away from the turbo is that still to close?

Any other comments on whether or not its too close.

Depends on the sensor. The bosch sensors are not tolerant at all to heat. I use the more expesnive NTK sensors. They are far more reliable, and can be mounted directly behind the turbo with no ill effects.

The AEM kit uses a Bosch and recommends 18" down stream from the turbo.
