Think I could put a wideband O2 in the EGR port in the manifold just to make it simple? Just thinking about that answering the EGR question.

its cheper to get a bung welded to the downpipe...that is what i did.
the EGR can be blocked off with a auto tranny fill bolt....fits in perfect.

Well I got the EGR pipe blocked off with bolts anyway. Just thought it would be a lil easier and neater to do. I think its to close to the engine myself. Ill write Invovate and see what they think.

I thought it was best if the wideband was in the path of all of the exhaust gasses.
I don't remember what the stock manifold looks like(but i remember what the pacesetter looks like) but I wouldn't put it in the egr location since it will only see one cylinder and its located away from the the flow of the exhaust. O2 bungs are only $5 anyways so it would be easy to just have it put in the correct location.

EGR port is only used after the engine is warmed up & on 1/4 to 3/4 or so on the throttle. 02 sensor there won't do any good. Plus, I don't think you can get a good weld on a bung on that thin EGR pipe, being the bung is big & braising involved.
