Wideband Install Recommendations?
Damn, I'm going to have to risk getting murdered by my wife and get a wideband. I'm not even gonna try and install it. Anyone know a place in Orange County CA that can install it for a reasonable fee?
Also I know of RRE in Santa Fe Springs but I heard there work is at a premium. This is just a wideband so would the quality of work to not be of particular value?
Thanks in Advance...

You want someone who knows about ur car and is known for their work! The more they know about ur car the better or u will have someone charge u more because they have no idea. Otherwise DIY documents are pretty good here on the forum.

Nope so far I have an Evo-X FMIC, UICP, LICP, BOV and a Cosworth drop in.
I had hoped to do stand alone logging and as such will probably go with the Innovate LC-1. Been told it's a pain to install but I'll look into guides if they're here.

If you need help installing it, I have done it for a couple of friends and can easily walk you through it. Could be a cool learning experience. However, if youre going to pay someone to install the downpipe, might want to just have them install the gauge. Its honestly an hour job.

I wasn't planning on doing a test or down pipe. I had assumed that I would just pay to have another bung cut and welded next to the existing O2 sensor.
Not sure if I'll do the turbo upgrade, but definatly a tune. Would use the GST Basemap. In fact that's the purpose of getting the wideband.
Thanks all for the help.
Edit: This?
Amazon.com: Innovate Motorsports 3795 DB BLUE Complete Wideband Gauge Kit (2 1/16 52mm) with LC-1, O2 Sensor, Bung and Plug: Automotive
Don't think I'll mount the gauge but I guess I can check to see if it's working with it.

Got the Wideband kit, but it came without the plug, so writing to Innovate and asking them to send me one. I have to say, this looks like it's going to be a pain to install...
Gotta get the bung installed first.
