weld a lambda bung in the down pipe and fit it simples

iv got a fourbranch goin on......does it matter how far down the exhaust it goes haha?

No, but it needs to be more or less vertical, which is going to be really difficult further on down the exhaust system. So, best on the downpipe. Why not buy a four branch with the bung already on it?

Yep, vertical on the downpipe. Have a look at where the lambda sensor is on a car that has one, for example.

ideally you want it where gasses from all 4 pots converge, otherwise you'll only be monitoring for problems on 1 or 2 pistons depending on the location of the probe and manifold design

if it's a mk3 polo four branch it should have a lambda boss…

if not then vertically just after the sump is the standard position on the polo.  About 2 inches from the sump on the top I believe.
