Low Cost Wide Band A/F Ratio Meter!!

found this on the net searching for info... are you thinking what i'm thinking?

 

Sounds good. You might also try http://www.techedge.com.au/vehicle/wbo2/wbo2.htm they have prebuilt or kits. They're shipping is quick now days. See the site for a prebuilt with display. Takes a week to arrive from OZ.

 

i was looking at that too... are these as good as dyno-tuning? or more on the monitoring level? the one i posted just happened to pop up and in my area also, and it includes the sensor so i don't have to buy it separately.... and plus, i'm still kind of confused with the o2 sensor portion, with all the UEGO and wide band and narrow band... supposedly UEGO are wideband and that's what's used for tuning??

 

I looked at that site and it has a lot of info. It looks like its $260 US, for everything short of the O2 sensor. Am i righ that i said you can just go and buy one for the year and model and part number for a honda and thats the right one? Does any one have one of these units? if so are you pleased?

yep, and if you order one now, you'll have it in 4-6 months LOL... they are way back ordered.

 

The sensor can be had from THE PARTS BIN. There is a problem there. They'll get some sensors in at irregular intervals, and they'll be gone in a heart beat. I bought my first sensor from a local NAPA for 146 bucks. Thats not possible now. They are flat out of sensors. On occasion I'll see a message at this site stating THE PARTS BIN HAS SENSORS NOW http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oz-diy-wb/ thats how I was alerted to buy my second sensor. Got it for 125bucks from THE PARTS BIN. They were out of parts the very next day.

The OZ site at http://www.techedge.com.au/vehicle/wbo2/wbo2.htm now sells the sensor for about 190 something bucks.

Yes, I like the OZ wideband. Read the posts on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/oz-diy-wb/ for a wide range of opinions about the TECHEDGE unit. After reading that site, I question the sensors that you stick up the tail pipe for a reading.
