    they can put it wherever you want. the one place im planning on going to has a "base test" of tailpipe. and if you pay moer you get more pulls/any location etc.

      Well if your car is setup right, then you will ahve an extra bung welding into your exhaust before your cat(s) for the sensor to screw into. Or they might take out an O2 sensor that isn't being used and put it in there. But if those don't work then they can use a sniffer on your tailpipe and that will pick up the reading as well. But having an extra bung is the best way to go.

        For the most accurate results, yes.

        If they put the sensor in a tailpipe (like at a dyno), there's calculations they can do to get a pretty good idea of the actual AFR. Measuring it here will show the AFR to be leaner than it actually is, because of what the cat removed from the exhaust.
