No headers , so right after the manifold?
Is this even possible with the pipes in the car?
I got a quote for 5-600.00 .

5-600.00 just for the bung(s)? Sounds way to high..............

Install it near your first 02 sensor. I think there's room. Not sure since I dumped that setup a couple years ago. Go to Top Notch like I recommended this am. I paid $20 for this.

I'll do it for a Portillo's beef and cheddar croissant! Make that 2, they're kinda small.
Get the bung installed and bring it to my house. I have all the tools we need and then some.

With factory exhaust:
I took the drivers side catalytic converter section off and mounted it to a bench vise. I drilled a pilot hole, then used a hole saw to cut a hole(IIRC 1") the size of the bung included with my wideband right between the manifold flange and the first cat, its really tight, but by putting the bung right up against the welds of the first cat it fits fine. I moved the engine O2 sensor to the new bung, and installed the wideband in the bung on the manifold that the original o2 was installed in. I drilled holes in the fenderliner and attached the wideband o2 connector there out of the way of the exhaust and steering shaft.

Great, you two are a cheap date!
I was thinking like Jameson's or that good Japanese place a few blocks west of there.

At least you squeezed it in ahead of the cat!

Bungs in! On T-bone's recommendation I went to TopNotch in Crystal Lake.
They took the pipe off and did a super clean job!
Now to get the wideband and op installed.
The lift the car sits on is broke, so things are going slow.

Don't worry about the wire. I have enough.
If you're replacing the cig lighter with a gauge, you need the angled bezel. Lucky for you, I have that too.

I do have one ! It's as old as the gauge like five years!
