Default EM1 Wideband question

Figure i would post here too just incase.

I just installed a new AEM wideband gauge to my turbo 2000 EM1 civic today. I brought it to the exhaust shop to install the bug about a foot down from the downpipe off the turbo exhaust housing. I got back to the shop to install the sensor and first start up to notice my gauge on idle from cold to warm up goes from 14.0 cold and slowly goes all the way down to 10.0 at idle. I run 93 octane gas for my car. I am just worried that is 10.0 a good number at idle? everynow and then it will go up to 14.5 and slowing go down again to 10.0...

At WOT boosting my wideband reads 11.5-12.0 and when not in boost just cruising around 60mph its back to 10.0

Should i be considered at all? Car was built and tuned by LHT Performance in FL.

Edit: added a video of it at idle.

Yeah that is awfully rich for idle and cruise. I bet your mpg sucks too.
