ok so im going to be buying an aem wide band soon and a zzp donpipe but am not really sure how the aem works if i buy the zzp downpipe do i just put my aem sensor in where the stock o2 sensors used to go or do i have to drill a new hole? and also when i order the zzp downpipe it asks if i want to buy an 02 bung for wide band should i get that as well?
thanks!!

 

AEM is a wideband, YES you want them to add a second hole for it. YOu keep your stock 02 sensor.

 

ok thanks so do i need the 02 bungs or does the aem come with those? and where do i need to drill the hole at

 

you dont need to drill any holes dude. when you order it select the wideband extra bung option. they will drill and weld a bung in there for you so when you get it you will have 2 bungs. 1 for the stock sensor and 1 for the wideband

 

The option for adding an O2 bung when your ordering the ZZP downpipe is what you want. If you select that they do every for you, the bung, the hole...everything. All you need to do is screw in your AEM wideband O2 sensor to the hole before the cat (if you go with a catted DP) and your good to go. If you go with a cat-less DP (like I did) then you need to add the O2 bung still or else there isn't one at all on it. The stock 2nd O2 sensor's only purpose in life is to check on the cat. If you go cat-less there's no point to use the stock 2nd O2 sensor so they don't put a hole there for it.


On a side note, why are you going with the AEM? I got the UEGO because I wanted the LED "needle" for a quick reference while tuning. What I found after I got the unit is that the "needle" isn't accurate enough and you can't really tell where it is without looking straight at it. If you look straight at the guage you can just read it, you don't need a "needle". If I were to go back in time I would save myself the money on my UEGO and get an LC-1 or some other brand that is just a plane digital readout.

 

im not sure why i was thinking of getting that i guess cause every else did it seemed good? i guess not but they all do the exact same thing? if so can you give me a link to the lc-1 so i can check it out

ok, please help me out here, what exactly is the advantage of the wideband o2 sensor? thx.

 

So you can fine tune your tune.

 

thx man.
