Could i take the stock o2 out and replace it with the innovate wideband or do i need to get a bund and make another hollow in the exhaust ???

Could you tune your car with the innovate ?


What is the a/f ratio in different rpms??


Thanks

 

Oh crap, are you ever asking for it

At least that's how it goes for me.

Maybe the "senior members" can come up with another acronym that us noob's won't understand. Like, 'SM-PL.' They can set it up that this acronym is a link and points you to some stickies.

assuming you have a stand alone ecu, you may replace the stock o2 sensor with the wideband o2 sensor. If you dont have any experience tuning or you havent watched others tune cars before, i dont suggest starting. One mistake and your motor is toast. Get a professional tune for your ecu. Use the wideband to keep an eye on things to make sure the afrs dont stray too high.

 

Most people find that the sensor gets too hot when used in the stock o2 sensor placement, even when using a heat sink. It is better to just mount the wideband sensor in the downpipe or midpipe near the downpipe/midpipe junction.

 

Thank you

 

This is a good point, i completely forgot that i am running a single turbo car with an aftermarket downpipe. lol. I just use the bung provided.

 

It's best to mount the wideband sensor further down the exhaust, but the Innovate system has an option to feed a narrow-band o2 signal to the stock ECU if you really don't want to add another bung; but its always best to just add another bung.

 

I have the Innovate WB sensor in the M2 downpipe's "stock location." It has held up well so far. Two years I think. I have 5 track events on it too. AFRs are not just rpm specific. They also depend on load and that is not just wide open throttle.

Some folks "tune" their own cars and negelect anything other than WOT. Not good.

 

Searching this forum turns up more posts about searching for info than actual information. Please don't assume that no one searches first. Some of us do.

 

I have also been running the Innovate WB sensor in the M2 DP, replacing the stock O2 sensor and running the NB signal to my PFC. It seems to be working fine. The M2 bung is lower down the pipe than most DPs and I'm using a heat sink.
