datalogging AFR with LT8s
Does anyone have any success doin this? i read on previous threads on making the 0-1v signal to go into the microtech.
i have a LT8s and a tech edge 1.5 wideband....
if u cant datalog your afr with your LT8s , how did u guys tune your car?

From what I understand from more knowledgable sources, you CAN datalog AFRs with the LT8. Now the trick is datalogging a true WB signal. The LT8 will only log a 0-1v signal as you noted. But if you can get a WB signal into a true 0-1v, then the LT8 theoretically would log a WB signal. The trick is that not all 0-1v WB signals are the same -- some are linear, some are not. I think for the best accuracy, you'd want a linear signal -- there is some controversy on whether or not the Techedge can produce a true linear 0-1v WB signal.
My advice? Try it and see and let us know.
I CAN tell you that I am myself going w/ the TE + LT8 setup w/ a Bosch 7057 sensor. Car is not assembled yet though, so I have no personal experiences to give you unfortunately.
I will be running with TE's AFR guage though and will be comparing it to what the LT8 is indicating.

Well, I'm quite a ways off from being ready to tune mine, but when that time comes, I'd be happy to have extra observers.
Depending on how bad Christmas spending goes, it might be spring before I even have something that I can start tho!
