Thanks for all the info guys. Cree, could you possibly snap a pic of where you welded in the o2 bung for the rear pipe? I'm going to go that route and I just mocked up the exhaust to get an idea of where I'm going to weld it in. Is there such a thing as too far down the pipe?

I'd try to stay within a couple of inches of the bung that's in there. The closer you are to the exhaust port the more accurate the reading will be. I can take a pic, but I'm running a different exhaust so it won't be of much help. Save the money on bungs and just grab a couple of hex nuts from the hardware store. Take a sensor with you, make sure it protrudes when it's bottomed out in the nut.
