Either side under the 3 bolt flange, low enough not to interfere with the bolts.

I have mine installed on bank 1 side about 6-8inches behind the header flange. Not to highjack, but innovative has their new dual sensor gauge now. I've been wanting that one, one sensor for each bank.

So placing it down where the y pipe merges is too far away from the motor then?? A dual sensor wideband would be nice. Surprised they are now just coming out with one!

From the pics I've seen, there already may be a bung.
