Ok so I finally got my LM-1. I've got the bung welded in and the wideband in place. I've read through various posts where some people say let the thing warmup before you start the car. Others say start the car without letting it warmup.

What's the best practice here? Will it hurt it to start the car prior to it "completing warmup"?

Also, is there a way to wire the sensor directly to the EIO ports without using the handheld analog out? Can't I just tap into the wires?

I presume I can't simply leave the wideband in there without having any power to it?
