Which wideband do you have? If you have one that you can log the runs on a computer like DSMLink or just by using the OBDII port straight into your computer, then that's what those wires are for. For AEM the blue (or white, I forget) are for hooking up to the ECU for DSMLink (or the likes) to log and the gray one is for logging just the wideband...that one is kind of pointless though because it doesn't show the RPMs, just that it's rising or lowering.

You don't have to remove the downpipe, but the bung should be welded with the suggested angle, not at a 90 angle either, something like 10 degrees. If that's not done, then you may get unburnt fuel or even condensation on the sensor and shorten it's life.

As for the AFC, list your mods again for me. I'll help get you around where you should be to get you started.
