from what i under stand the reading from a wideband is not compatible with stock ecu's therefore you end up throwing codes/going into limp mode.

putting the wideband in a location that is before the cats is the key here... you put it behind the cats, you get a false reading... alot of exhaust setups that I've seen with a custom hole for the wideband sensor have the bung on the passenger side, but I've seen some on the driver's side as well as some on the collector before the I pipe... but that's not going to work on a car with true duals, so its really just easier to use a location close to the collector of the long tubes, if you have them, and before the cats, if you have those, too.
and most new widebands are set up to be self heating... some of the older ones needed to be heated, so proximity to the headers was a must.
