ok I am playing around with the notion of adding the wideband to my setup, so what do you think.

That is the plx unit, and it says "comes with two analog outputs, linear wideband and narrowband. Our linear wideband output gives you the freedom to interface with a number of tuning devices, such as data loggers, piggy back fuel systems and stand alone engine management systems. With the narrowband output you are able to completely replace your stock narrowband sensor and "feed" our analog signal directly into your ECU. This eliminates the hassle of welding a second sensor bung on your down pipe. Your ECU will "think" that your narrowband sensor is still there while you're measuring wideband information at the same time!"

Is that good to do (sharing the wideband sensor as a main tuning device, and the o2 sensor for the ecu?).

Finally, is the stock location of the o2 sensor a good general location for the wideband sensor, or is that too close or too far?

its best to have your is farther down the pipe. don't replace your stock unit.

also, that unit kinda sucks.

get the unit from www.wbo2.com

also, do a search.
