Well, this is for an air/fuel ratio guage right?
I installed mine and the first time I spliced into the stock 02 sensor.
1 wire for power
1 wire (black) for ground
1 wire (sender unit) for reading.
If you are splicing into the stock o2 sensor then it goes into the one just before the cat.
You will find 3 wires on the o2 sensor, black, red and purple. The purple is the one that you can get a reading for the air/fuel ratio guage.
I did this and I found that my bird would eventually get a check engine light due to low voltage for that particular o2 sensor.
I eventually bought an autometer o2 snesor install kit for my bird.
You would weld in 1 extra bung into your exhaust and add a 5th o2 sensor. This added o2 sensor is just for the guage and guage only.
I hope that helps.
I've done it before and found out what works and what doesn't.
