Where to get Wideband o2? I want a wideband o2 sensor for my car, I'd like to get one that I can watch live as I'm going down the road and tune the car on the street and watch it during racing.
Is there anything available for me?

Some guys wire it to a switched 12 volt so it comes on when you start the car. The only problem is you need it to only turn on after the car cranks and starts due to possible voltage spikes while cranking. I haven't been following how they've accomplished this but I think they figured something out.

Thanks for the information guys! I definately appreciate it.
I think I am going to get one, should be a very handy tool and I am kind of a worrier, so it will make me feel better being able to keep my eye on it.

Got it right when it was released... hopefully the weather will warm up so I can actually tune off it (logged my car tonight on the way home... LTRIMs are damn near mixed 
so gotta adjust them and then make sure i'm good at WOT)

Anyone use the MachV unit?
$349
And...
$44
There are 2 analog outputs from the control box the first is a 0-5v readout that will feed just about any stand alone Engine Management Systems or dataloggers and a 0-1v output which will feed your stock ECU so you only have to use 1 O2 sensor. No welding an extra bung on here!
And...
Narrowband to Wideband Gauge Converter
This device allows the wideband output signal from the above wideband kit to feed a narrowband o2 sensor like the offerings from Autometer. You could simply use the narrowband output from the wideband kit but it simulates what the stock ECU wants to see and the o2 gauge will continue to be very erratic. With this device it drops the 0-5v output to a linear 0-1v output and thus your blinky light o2 gauge will suddenly be.... accurate!

This wide band commander thing is neat, but I think I am going to go with the Innovate Motorsports unit. Closer the money I want to spend.

When I tried to view the pricing sheet on FJO's
page my browser got into some jiggy page loop.
I have also seen today dynotune.org ($429)
and innovate ($349 + ala carte) and the dynojet
($549?) and of them I like the looks of the
Innovate better, as I would keep it as a loose
tool for using on my own and others only as
needed. I'm waiting for the next special.
