Thats what I wanted to hear, I just ordered a pair of 13111's as I don't think my stock o2's are working right due to being in the long tubes. I heard many good things about using these sensors in long tube headers

99dwpta -

Speed INC will probably be using there in house dyno which will have wideband read out...i dont see why they would use your narrow band sensors at all for tuning? much less accurate than a wb

??? They have a stronger heater than stock and in almost every case that I have seen they work better with LTs.
