You just can't plug a wide band O2 into your car and expect it to work. A wide band O2 worked on a 5v signal were a regular O2 has a 1V signal. To make a wideband work on your car you would need some sort of electronic circuit to be able to handle the signal of the wideband then convert the signal back to a narrow band 1V signal that your ECU with understand. Cost at least US$300-400+ to drive a A/F meter and convert a signal back to 1V. For one that will have direct benefit to your engine

so a wide band is not plug and play?? Is there a kit to buy that plugs right together so there is no rewiring or mods to be done??

I think this is what you want:
"AEM Wideband UEGO Controller Air/Fuel Ratio GaugesAccurate, high-tech gauges!

AEM's Wideband UEGO Controller is now available in a gauge that includes a single-channel analog output with a Bosch O2 sensor in one unit! These air/fuel ratio gauges feature an LED readout and sweeping LED "needle" that changes colors as AFR changes from rich to lean. The unit's 52mm (2 1/16 in.) gauge housing fits in most gauge pods and can be remotely mounted virtually anywhere. "
Can be found for $377.95 at :

Innovative Motorsports has a wideband controller + sensor available for 200 dollars (both the controller and sensor together). It has two programmable outputs. You can program one of them to emulate a narrowband sensor. Very slick setup.
