Default Best location for a 2nd O2 sensor?

Where's the best location for a 2nd bung for a wideband sensor? Pictures always appreciated!

I did a quick surf of the archives but no obvious answer popped up.

Exactly where I have mine techno, except I do have mine at a higher angle to keep water from forming on the end of the sensor as much.

If you're welding on a stock pipe, take the middle section off, and near the starter there should be a kink on top, go a little past that down the pipe at 12 o'clock and put it there. I wish I had taken a picture before I installed it. When the pipe is still mounted you're trying to put it in the center tunnel, straight up; make sure to leave yourself some room on the driver side of the center tunnel.

definitely put it where these guys are talking. I have mine in the crossover pipe with a heat sink... it worked fine for normal street use but when I was coming home from Charlotte I was trying to see how much my boost was dropping in 4/5th gears and I overheated it.
