AEM wideband sensor location
 

I have searched and have not been able to find a true answer as far as to where are people placing their AFR sensors. I have read that the people that place them on the stock sensor location end up burning their sensors because they are not made to get that hot. Is that true?

It is said in the installation manuel of AEM that you must intalled it at 30inch down from the turbo.

I installed mine about 2 inch from the flange on my High flow cat

I just installed my wideband yesterday. I had the bung welded into my resonated mid-pipe, right about 12 or 1 O'Clock, before the muffler.

Oh awesome. I though I would have to take off the downpipe. I will place it about 2 inches back on my midpipe. Thanks guys

I installed mine on the downpipe right before the flange that bolts to the midpipe. No problems so far.

I think mine is as far forward on the mid-pipe that you can go if you want to mount the sensor straight up in the air (like mine), which is the recommended way to install.

There subframe gets in the way if you try to mount it any further forward, or at least it looked that way to me when I was under the car yesterday.

Sweet bro good to know. I will let you guys know what i do when it comes in. It should take me like 5 min to weld the bung in place ;-)

ok my next question. What is the safest way to run the wire inside the car without getting it burned by the exhaust or the motor?

For the first 2 feet I sleeved it with that Thermo-Tec heat shield sleeve (as in the pic), I have it run to a pass though that the previous owner right at the steering column.

I ran it up and across the engine bay then through the drivers kick panel. I am making my own quad pod so right now my wideband is pretty getto and zipped tied to the center speaker panel. LOL

Were did you get the thermal wrap for that wire. I didnt use anything on my wire. I drove the car today so I will check the wire tomorrow to see if anything melted.

You can get it from Summit Racing, Pegasus Auto, or Amazon, eBay...

Just search for "ThermoTec Sleeve"
