AEM Uego WB02

[jmdst28]

got myself a AEM Uego WB02 and am trying to install it onto an Apexi N1 downpipe. Do i have to weld in the bung or can the sensor go in place of the existing 02 sensor? i also have no cat. thanks...

If you have the wideband controller then it can replace the sensor. you just have to wire it to the ecu so the ecu knows what is going on. At least that is what I have picked up.

Stock ECU still needs the stock sensor. The UEGO connects to its gauge and to any other logger/tuner. You will need both.

Yes you can put it in place of the stock rear 02 sensor. You can either leave the stock o2 sensor plugged in and leave it under the seat, disable it, or if you have link you can remove it.

sorry to hijack this thread but by removing the rear o2 is it necessary to remove the driver seat?

Yes it would be a big pita with the seat still in.

Couldn't you just cut a small hole in your exhaust, and then weld in the sensor? A buddy of mine did that and it worked out perfect.

I installed mine in the O2 housing and soldered the white wire in the 4pin harness to the front O2 pin on the ecu. It will produce a narrowband signal to keep the ecu happy. No check engine lights or anything.

Isn't it heated? I wouldn't leave it in the car under the seat...

Look at this: http://www.aempower.com/images/products/Installation Instructions 30-4100.pdf

A weld-in M18 X 1.5 boss is supplied for sensor installation. Mount the O2 sensor in the exhaust system at least 18 inches downstream from the exhaust port. If you anticipate high EGT's (over 800C), run a turbocharger, run at high RPM for extended periods of time or plan on running leaded race fuel then you must mount the sensor at least 36 inches or more downstream of the exhaust port as all of these can cause the sensor to overheat. On turbocharged engines the UEGO sensor must be installed after the turbo charger, if not, the pressure differential will greatly effect the accuracy of the unit. For accurate readings, the sensor must be mounted before catalytic converters and/or auxiliary air pumps. To prevent collection of liquids between the sensor housing and sensor element during the cold start phase, the installation angle should be inclined at least 10° towards horizontal with the electrical connection upwards, see diagram

so i should just go ahead and weld that on and leave the rear o2 sensor in as well?

That would be the easiest way.

I have mine in the rear 02 location and spliced into the ECU (pin 75 i think) so i can log the values in Link.

This is what I did. No issues and have had DSMLink since V2 came out.
