Wideband o2 bung question

I just got an autometer wideband. It has a stainless stell bung and the instructions say to TIG weld it in. A buddy of mine has a good MIG welder, will that be sufficient?

Thanks,
James

Yes a MIG welder will do the job just fine.......make sure to weld the bung in before any cats inorder to get a correct reading

Is fine. Mine did not come with directions. Was Arch welded in. Works excellent. Took some time to weld to prevent from overheating and warping though...
