Calibrating an Innovate wideband is very easy to do. Should be in the instructions that came with it. Haven't done it in a while but as far as I remember you have to let the car sit for a several hours so it's cool, turn your key to Accessory (don't start the car), then hit the button on the gauge three times, display should start blinking, hit it one more time before it stops blinking, and it will calibrate. Don't do this after driving the car as your readings will be off, let it sit for several hours and cool down completely.
If you have an AEM, I believe they are ready to go right away (someone correct me if I'm wrong). My AEM is in the mail on it's way, so I'll find out for sure soon enough.
Guy's with widebands, did you use a dual channel (one sensor for each bank) or did you just use one and place it on the y-pipe where both sides meet? I've heard that although it's advisable to do both sides and as close as possible to teh engine, the readings will be pretty much the same at the y-pipe.

$20 (for me) get the bung welded, screw in the sensor, connect the terminals and voila!!! OH and make sure you get it welded into the top of the TP or wherever! If you put it in the bottom youre readings will be off and eventually youll have to replace the sensor (not cheap):
