from my LC-1 install guide (www.lukekailburn.com)

"On TURBO CHARGED vehicles:

Install the bung downstream from the turbo before the catalytic converter. The high exhaust pressure before the turbo interferes with the lambda measurement and the high exhaust temperatures encountered there can damage the sensor."

Do NOT install the Bung below the 3 o'clock or 9 o'clock position. Condensation can form in the exhaust pipe and permanently damage the sensor. 6 oclock is the absolute worst position to mount the sensor."

im sure it does not HELP the wideband sensor but i have never heard of it causing major issues.
