Wideband Bung Mounting

I just got my Innovate LM-1 and I need help on mounting the bung on the rear end of the downpipe.

I have a S4 TII w/ a Racing Beat DP, I believe it is 2.5", at what position should the bung be mounted at? 12 o'clock being the top and 6 o'clock being the bottom. I know it has to be between the 9 and 3 o'clock position( less than a 90degree angle from the 12o'clock position.

Where is the best place for clearance issues? If you would have a pic that would help alot!

Bro! Definitely 12 O'clock. 10 through 12" from the turbine manifold. Make sure you wrap the downpipe with the thermal heat wrapper or whatever they call it.

PEACE!

Will there be any clearance issues at the 12 oclock position? Only 10"-12" away from the turbo? Is that alittle to close? And why the thermal heater wrap? I thought that can damage the exhuast and trubo, trapping in the excess heat.....

9 and 3 o'clock position is were I have always heard that it should be mounted because of any moisture wanting to collect in the sensor.
Thats where mine is located.

And most recommend that the sensor be located at the end of the down pipe because of two reasons, temperature and for the fact that there is the decreased possibility of a leak in the exhaust path to effect the O2 sensor. 2 seals instead of 3
