Default Whipple Tuners + Wideband

So I'm pretty much done with the WHipple install. I need to hook up my wide band guage. So for the guys that have hooked up your own wide bands, Did you weld in an extra bung or just use the bung from the stock o2 sensor?

Question 2 - I'm going to be purchasing a tune for the new Whipple set up from an online tuner (brenspeed, Jdm, Bama, Etc.). With this tune loaded up, do I even need a Dyno tune before I can get on it (get into boost)?

I have always read to weld in the bung and NOT use the stock location....

I welded a bung in the driver side right behind the exhaust manifold. As for the tune, the FRPP tune is excellent right out of the gate, very safe. I also have a Brenspeed tune, but I can't really tell you how safe it is because I haven't had it dyno'd yet. Been meaning to do that...

I installed my wideband in my O/R pipe because I had the rear O2's turned off.

And Like I posted in the other thread I would use the whipple tune for a while. It is perfectly safe to "get on it" with that tune. I used it for 1 year with 0 issues, as have many others.
