On the 4cyl i think it's sticking right out of the bottom of the extractors below the heat shield.

At least I think that's it, Ol' Fart, where are you!!!!

pick a data logger and run the other end into your zorst, simple and easy

o2 sensor on 4cyl is even height with the head sticking straight out of your extractors.

v6 its after the 2 pipes from the different banks join and before the cat.

If you are going to use an aftermarket guage, get a second o2 sensor fitted so there is no risk of interferance or voltage back flowing to your ecu.

The o2 sensor is only looked at during cruise and idle on a warm engine non the less do not risk a contaminated signal

I just myself one of these gauges.
When you say "so there is no risk of interferance or voltage back flowing to your ecu."
Why would this be the case when installing a monitering device?
Is it REALLY essential to get another 02 sensor? Cause i did'nt wanna blow another $130 on one, just wanted the damn gauge.

Also what wire do i tap into? I know it comes out of the ECU..But if anyonw knows off by heart that would be awesome;)

The 02 white signal wire comes out of the exhaust manifold, or you can connect it at the ECU, white wire (pin 9) shown in Gregory's #263 which is in the middle plug, top row, 4th one along inclusive

Also, you don't need an extra O2 sensor
