if you are asking what sensor it hooks to, you have a narrow band gauge. to put it bluntly, it is useless because the ratio a turbo engine works in doesnt even register on that gauge.

you need a true wideband af gauge.

but to answer your question, at the sensor, it is the should be white with a shield on it.

Yea, hate to break it to you, but that thing is just a light show. Get an AEM wideband, they're like $260 for the complete gauge and sensor setup.
