    18" downstream from the downpipe is the 'recommended' place to mount the oxygen sensor.

    before the cat if you have one.

    If your welding a bung in, just put it in the crossover pipe near the rear head, easy to get to and easy to wire up.

    I wouldn think that place would be very accurate? If youre running a cat I think right in front of it would be the best spot imo.... when I put my AEM in I put it right before the last bend in the downpipe of my headers...

    I went right before my bend... maybe other widebands are different but I dont think these are as accurate if they are right there in the crossover...

    The front bank is not going to be much different from the rear bank, less likely to be a leak before the sensor and overall easier. You can do what you want but it's not going make or break you from 5hp.
