I just installed most of my kit besides the gauge and the 02 and went to mexico. The main part was pretty easy, i soldered about everything.

People should just give examples of where they connected the power wire to on their fuse box/where a good ground spot is.

Then if someone has a nice little trick for running the wires, maybe enlighten the OP to said trickery. It may be more helpful than being confused as to why the OP is confused.

So you are recommending to put it where the stock front O2 sensor goes (too close to the turbo) or the stock rear O2 sensor (after the cat)?

The rear o2 sensor. But I would leave that sensor and just put the bung in the downpipe. Unless you get tuned and have the CEL light turned off

If you live in a state with no emissions, just get a test pipe and have a shop weld an extra bung on for you. I think one comes with the AEM kit. then run the sensor wire through the same hole the stock o2 goes through. Use this: http://store.42draftdesigns.com/O2-S...cer_p_306.html to not throw a code. It is expensive, but a nice part.

Ground to chassis and run the power from one of your existing gauges. If you are going to log your wideband, buy the rs232 cable and wire it up as well.

I just installed a voltmeter, boost gauge, and innovate LC-1, over the weekend. The first two were dead simple, I've never done a wideband, so it was a little intimidating at first. Honestly, just read the instructions thoroughly, there's guides around that show you basic info on where to route what, etc....

Not trying to bash, but if you're this confused that you don't even know where to start, why not just have someone else do it? Take it to a shop or indie that works on evos, and pay to have it done right....
