No need for yellow or brown wire, correct. Also no need for orange connectors. efilive will read it in properly if you have the lc2 pid selected in the scan tool.

The lc2 comes with software or is downloadable, it's pretty easy to use it if you think you need to troubleshoot issues. I'm waiting on a tow truck for my G8, so you've got my full attention haha.
Make sure to follow the calibration procedure on the lc2. Then, you can test it and the pids by holding a rag of can cleaner/ Gas.. Whatever and you should see it go dead rich.
Also, make sure all units are in that gK/kpa unit (in the car so not sure if that is the right exact unit), just get out of %VE is what I mean.
Do not let yellow and brown wires short anywhere, trim them and tape them off.
Setting up serial wideband on V2, see post #3 here: Setting-up-a-FSV2-from-scratch
I did all of these. I got the V2 to have the green light and I ran the wire next to the steering column by the header and had it cross over the intake. It looks pretty good and it can hardly be seen, I also wrapped it in aluminum tape in case the exhaust gets the wire hot. I went to run the V2 scanner but then I realized that I couldnt because I needed a serial port to my computer to tune the settings for the O2 sensor. I could not have tuned my car anyway because I could not get insurance on it because the insurance company wont let me insure it for a week at a time anymore. Does this mean that I need to get some type of connector that goes from the V2 from the "IN" cable to my computer to set the voltages and air to fuel ratios? Also do I need an SD card for my V2?
Dang, sorry man, yeah you need a serial to "phone" wire.
I don't use the V2 for Blackbox tuning.... But I Probly should. If you do then yes you need an SD card, otherwise just use the laptop.
What exactly is blackbox tuning?
Just means you can record all your data with the v2 and not have a laptop plugged in. Some states kinda have a thing against tuning with a laptop even in the passenger seat (Illinois).
Dude, you need to graduate so you can get a job and spend your time surfing the nets... 😀😀😀
Black Box = no laptop (leave it at home)
And having laptop in car while doing wild acceleration may be detrimental to laptop if it bangs around
( and F-car passenger seat is all shapely so laptop does not sit flat/horizontal or still )
With Black Box mode you can do:
BBL (logging)
BBR (read calibration)
BBF (flash calibration)
SCAN (OBD-II scan of DTC's, test results, VIN/CVN).
