I have invested in a wide band AFR, after reading at a lot of threads about where to locate the lambda sensor I am none the wiser. I have a standard 2.0 exhaust system with a banana silencer.

Some say to install the sensor in one of the exaust pipes (before the silencer) and others say install in the silencer.

Can anyone give me some advice?

A few years back when rebuilding my engine to a 2056, I installed it on the tail pipe per installation recommendations (at angle, pointing down). Since I didn't know how the interior of the muffler was actually built, I figured, this is not the best but I am catching all of the cylinders.

Do you have a sense of the accuracy of this location for the sensor? I am also considering installing an wide band gauge.
Thanks
