Default Anyone seen this wideband??

I looked at this wideband sensor. It has an LCD that is able to do AFR, boost, and EGT. Seems like that would be a good thing to have. Anyone know anything of it like how good it is?

Yeah my friend is using one in his Boosted Integra... its pretty nice.. but finding a good place to mount it would suck... or you could, modify the center console, infront of the shifter, take out that little pocket and the cigaret lighter and mount it there..

alot of people were having problems with getting an accurate reading with hpt a while back so many have stayed away. If your not using it to directly tune & are just eyeballing it its not a bad deal.

there's nothing wrong with it, the only unusual thing about it is the calibration output is non-linear. all other widebands linearize their output for ease of configuration in software. it doesn't really matter, as HPT (and i'm sure same goes for EFI) can take non-linear calibration from few calibration points.

I had that same wideband and it is a freaking pain in the ***. It took me forever to get it to work correctly and you will see now that HPT doesn't even support it on their list of widebands due to several having isssues. I would cancel my order and purchase one that has a linear output. You will be happier in the long run and better off.

Well I got the LCD with it so I shouldnt even need to run it on tuning software. It has its own logger and you can connect tach input to it. So for a WOT run you could see A/F vs RPM's.

WOT is fine, for normal tuning it is worthless IMO.

I am done with closed loop for now, I finally got my LTFT's dialed in, anywhere from 0 to -2 I just wanted the wideband for WOT and I thought it is cool that is has a boost gauge on it as well.

Got it hooked up, it was an easy install and payed a shop $20 to weld the new bung in. So far it seems to work fine in closed loop. Havent tried WOT yet.
