AEM wideband in factory O2 bung?
Hey guys. I read somewhere that the AEM O2 sensor would not screw into the rear O2 on the factory Y-pipe. Will it? Is this an ok spot to be mounted in?
Im going to have the cats gutted and then(hopefully) install the AEM sensor in the rear bung and plug the other. Thanks.

Yes it will work fine in the facrtory O2 bung which is 18mm. You dont want it too close to the engine because excessive heat will affect the accuracy of the sensor. In most off road exhaust (non catalytic) applications it is suggested you place the sensor 2-3 foot from the end of the tail pipe in the 9 to 3 o clock position to keep the sensor safe from high temperatures and condensation.
