dini_the_owl Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 ive been looking at going to wideband sensor etc for future developments, spotted these on fleabay, just wondered if anyone is running the plx one, if so is it any good? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PLX-DM-5-Wideband-O2-52mm-Display-SM-AFR-Combo-BLACK_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ107063QQihZ019QQitemZ290108863770QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD1V or http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AEM-AFR-WIDEBAND-GAUGE-TYPE-UEGO-CONTROLLER-30-4100_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ46100QQihZ004QQitemZ140137013474QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan.G Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 I would look at a vems wideband bud Simple, very accurate and great price http://www.vems.co.uk/wideband.html Also has thermocouple input for egt sensor or air temp sensor linear wideband output and uses reliable bosch lsu sensor insteed of ngk sensor which are slower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I'm using one of these http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/products/db.php Yes i swear by Innovate stuff, been using them for a few years now, they really can't be beat for their accuracy and the all important data logging software:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan.G Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 When mapping cars i always use my innovate but have found the vems to be just as good as use one of these in my own supra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dini_the_owl Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 cheers for the info guys, gonna have a read up now and see, one question that i have is, with the innovate unit, does this convert to anolog so the stock ecu can read the signal or does it have to be run with a standalone ecu? as im not totally sure where i want to go with that yet? andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 You can use one of the two configurable narrow band simulated outputs that the Innovate can generate, to run a stand alone/piggyback or the std ECU but why would you want to replace the std sensor? the wideband won't fir in the same place as it has different fittings, it also may be a bit close to the turbo in some cases, some wide band sensors can be a bit sensitive to temperature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
