Innovate wideband- Is this all I need?

So i found this wideband on ebay and i was just wondering if this is all I will need to get it going? Also how hard are these to install? Does this look like an OK kit? Thanks guys and here's the link.

That's pretty much all you'll need; well, that and a sensor bung you can use on your exhaust system.

does this seem like a pretty good deal, average (whats expected) or a little high, i have a hard time discerning between specific models of widebands.

Looks like it comes with the bung and plug. You would still have to drill a hole in your exhaust and weld the bung on. There is also guidance out there for where to position the bung. It can't be as close to the turbine as the stock O2 sensor, but I don't recall how far it should be.

i may end up having to take it to an exhaust specialist as i'm not so good at welding. Other than actually installing the sensor is the wiring and stuff hard to figure out (i'm sure there are instructions with it as well as on here but i just would like to know what i'm getting myself into)?

If you wire it in stand-alone, it should be pretty easy. Just wire the harness to the sensor and some power supply. I'm not sure what you do to wire it in to the stock ECU or into a logger. But I'm sure you'll find out when you're actually installing it with parts and instructions in hand.

i think it needs to be about 36" away from the turbo
