Default air fuel gauge help!

I just hooked up a air and fuel gauge and it doesn't work I have the hot and ground correct. I just don't know what wire on the 02 sensor to hook up to. Also do I hook up to the o2 on the header or Spipe? Please help.

you bought the wrong af meter. You need to buy a wideband setup with its own sensor and then mount it in your s pipe. What you bought will not work. Try and return it if you can.

Only way you could get it to work is by hooking it up to the rear o2 sensor but a narrowband is pretty much worhtless unless you just want flashing lights.

You can keep the narrow band you have and get a plx autometer adapter (converts narrow into wideband) I'll try to find a link
