Sooo....Which Wideband to Buy?
I was thinking about getting a wideband, and I was just wondering what everyone is using and/or recommending. I was looking at the LM-1. I am surprised you really need anything with HPTuners EIO...can't you pretty much power up a wideband O2 sensor and read the voltage using the EIO? Anyways, just looking to see what you guys think.

I have an LM1 and i like it... the Dynojet kit is a really nice kit too...
Key is make sure the system uses a Bosch LSU4 or derivative of that sensor... they're cheap to replace... some of the more expensive sensors are over a hundred bux to replace if they get carboned up
You still need a wideband controller, it interprets the signal and then outputs the voltage (the LM1 is programmable so you can tell it what volt range to use for what AFRs) I think the wideband signal processing has to be hardware based... would require too much work from a computer (unless you have a newer laptop) to process the signal and report everything

LM-1 and dynojet both work fine w/HPT
the LM-1 you can buy the all out package... or there's a post about them coming out w/a cheaper version soon.. no display on the controller... but you still have analog outputs, so you could use their wideband O2 gauge in a gauge pod (or order the bigger one and put it in a vent)
The Dynojet package is all inclusive... sensor, controller, gauge

Check out AEM. I have theirs, its a very nice permanent mount setup and it also works perfect with hp tuners. Their guage is the best looking in my opinion. You can get it with black or white face and different bezels too.
