Most 02 sensors should have 3 wires coming out of it... I believe you hook it up to the white wire (general statement) or in other words the middle wire. Just tap it on the plug of the 02 and that's what monitors the A/F. You'll have to find your own power source. On my car I used the clock.

Hey Piot, did you connect it to the O2 sensor that's on the front header, right before the pre-cat??

Yeah there is aplug that comes up in front of the front bank exaust manifold. Then tap there and make sure you do the power for the gauge through a relay otherwise you might get some crazy readings.
