What wideband should I get ?
 
I am going to get a wideband , which should i get
i am looking at under $500 range
i should have listed most of them, if other please tell me which and why
thanks

Innovate, FJO, TechEdge, FJO, AEM, PLX ... should be all

heres the related mod:
t-66
850 primary / 1600 secondary
ported motor
cast hks manifold
3 inch exhaust
tial bov
tial 46mm wastegate
fuel pump (aeromotive i think)

edit: i was trying to make it a poll ... too late i guess
btw i m leaning towards Innovate LM-1

everyone seems to get the inovative lm-1 however there has been people that have had problems with them. The plx looks like a damn good system as well and everyone on this site that has one likes em'.

haltech, microtech, wolf?

sub9lulu 09-14-04 11:11 AM

oh forgot, microtech

***haltech, microtech, wolf?*****

So your saying that the haltech, microtech, wolf all have builtin widebands and they all sell for less than 500 bucks? I missed that feature on them and the price list I saw for them was......a few bucks more. humor

TechEdge works just fine. One of the other brands uses a cigar lighter for power. Turns me off to see that feature.

i have the microtech LT-8, what it can do is that is datalog the wideband as narrowband.

That's a little disheartening.

Yeah but its got a bosch sensor. That drops the price of the kit a lot but the Bosch doesnt hold up well to the high heat as well as the NTK does. I know some people get the bosch and do just fine, but I never hear of peopel having problems using the NTK sensors.

I got my PLX because all i wanted to know was my A/F ratio in big bright red numbers. Not a bunch of other crap. I have other things to monitor all that.

I got the M200 a long time ago. They have a whole slew of other options you can get now though.

Personally I like the AEM for its display and the way it would match my greddy gauges. But I need to be able to datalog to tune by. Right now I am planning on getting the Zt-2 with the display unit for $400. They even have a USB cable to use if you only have one serial port on your laptop.

I use an FJO datalogging setup with the digital display.

Try using the Innovate HBX-1 (~$90) heat-sink bung extender for longer life on the Bosch sensors. It will help extend the life of the Bosch sensor quite a bit. Its a little more expensive now, but it will save a lot later.

I was looking at that witch I like alot! however is it good for all o2 sensors???? Thanks.

Ryde _Or_Die 09-15-04 12:53 PM

With the PLX ones you can't datalog without the 400 or 500 right? And how much better is the NTK than the Bosch? I mean its 3 times the price so unless it lasts over 3 times as long or for some reason the Bosch isn't accurate I don't see a need to go with the more expensive one.

The plx will data log if you have an ems that can accept a 0-5v input or a linear 0-1v input(microtech lt-8).

I thought that when most of these WB's use an EMS they only show it in narrowband?
