Can someone please explain what is used to read a wideband O2? And does it matter that I'm using a pfc? Also, does it take the place of the stock o2 or is there an alternate place you bolt into? I'd greatly appreciate any help

You order an entire system FJO Wideband
It will operate independantly of your PFC, you would adjust your PFC based on the readings on your wideband display. Haltech's, for example, can datalog an output from the wideband meter, but not adjust fuel mixture on their own based on this signal. (YET
)
You can thread a wideband O2 sensor into your stock O2 sensor location while tuning and put the stock O2 sensor back in when you are done. Or you can make a second O2 sensor bung in your exhaust if you want to keep the wideband all the time. All it takes is a hole saw drill bit and a weld bung.
Wideband sensors built into dynos may just be inserted into your exhaust at the back of the car at some places. Of course, to get an accurate reading back there you would need to have no cats.
