AEM Wideband Location?
I just installed my AEM wideband and was wondering if the location of the sensor makes a difference in the reading that it will give? The reason I ask is because i am tuned since september and my car runs great but when get on it now i get a reading of 10.3-10.5 and and it should be around 11.0 and at idle i am at 15.0 and it should be around 14.0. I put the sensor right before the high flow cat coming from the downpipe.
Thanks
Thanks

It should fluctuate between 14.5 and 15.3 at idle and cruise. 14.7 is stoich. And that is your ECU's goal. It may be dropping into the 10s due to accel enrichment. Its like an accelerator pump on a carb. When you mash the gas, it dumps extra fuel. But your afr should climb back up to where it was tuned. Also keep in mind that atmospheric changes (weather) has an impact on afr. It may not be "tuned" to the same specs now as you were before.
