This is the greatest thing since sliced bread!Â* If I had known this was in the works, I would not have had my testpipe welded;

Now there is very little excuse not to have a wideband.

That looks pretty awesome, but I wonder about longevity and exhaust leaks.

Cool, maybe. But how much does it cost to buy the AEM product compared to how much it would cost to just get the O2 bung welded securely in place? I'd gather that it might actually be cheaper to get it welded.

They go for about $40. I got my test pipe welded for $20 and it turned out fine. Yea, it costs more, but I would have felt better doing it myself and having less down time. There are a lot of monkeys out there and the less they have to do with my car the better.

I thought that I was going to see a funny picture with a wideband zip-tied in the tailpipe... Glad I didn't.

Damn good idea!
