Default Cheaper wideband setup?

Ok I was reading on how to wire an oxygen sensor into hptuners without EIO. Would that work if i just got a cheaper bosch wideband and spliced it into a pcm sensor input?

In particular something like this:
Five wire BOSCH Lambda Uego ( LSU 4.2 )
I believe it is compatible with the lm-1 or lc-1 btw.

Basically, if I wire the wideband into a pcm sensor input, can i work the thing without getting an lm-1 or lc-1 control unit?

I'm pretty sure you can't, or everyone would be doing it. The wideband sensor is way more complicated than the narrowband and has to have electronics to interpret the signal and control it. Our narrowbands are 0-1volt where the wideband reads 0-5v. You CAN wire the LC-1 into HPTuners without having the EIO, through one of the AC sensors.

Nice car btw!

I already have a compatible autometer gauge. I will run the other input through my egr or something and read it through the pcm.

700$, can't get much cheaper than that.
