Just put it in the stock location. It's heated so it's working within seconds. Use output 1 (narrow band) for the ECM and output 2 (wideband) for your gauge. At least that is what I did before swapping in the turbo.

If you're using a catalytic converter, install it before the cat, not after. The catalytic converter typically skews the readings by 0.5 AFR.

VERY bad idea. Widebands are extremely heat sensitive, so the farther downstream you can get it the better for sensor life and the better for accuracy. Most suggest 2 feet past the narrow band, but it could be less.
