wideband 02 sensor?

I am new to the microtech I have a quick question about wiring the wideband.
I just bought the LT10, and going over the wiring in my experiences there is more than one input for the wideband. This is not the case for the microtech it is only showing one wire input. So my question is this, what brand, # of wires, etc. should I go with, and what is the best way to wire it up?


Thanks
Steve

Thanks for the info I read the options wrong I thought it was a option of the microtech not an option to buy I guess I will send it back to microtech.

Is there anyone who runs the microtech without a wide band? Is it efficent or should I just bite the bullit and send it back for 700$ extra


Thanks
Steve

I wouldnt even bother with the narrow band.
I would buy a innovate lm-1 Straight up.

If I did buy one of the innovate LM-1's would I still need to upgrade my microtech?

No. You wouldnt hook it up to the microtech period. The LM-1 is a stand alone unit.

You can use the Microtech AFR meter and hook it up to work with your microtech. or you can buy the bosch sensor from microtech and wire it up.

Ive also heard of people using the lc-1 and adjusting it to work with the microtech but i have no experience with it and dont know how well it works.

what if i use a Innovative MS wide band that has an analog output and hook it up to the microtech will the microtech display accurate air/fuel ratio. what i mean if the LM-1 is a wide band is it providing a wide a/f ratio signal over the analog input of the microtech?
