its very affordable at around 90 bucks and all i would need is a wideband 4 wire vx or hx o2 correct?

 

i believe they are 5 wire

 

I think that is for a narrowband? Widebands usually require a control box in addition to a meter.

oh really?

 

Wideband O2 sensors are 5-wire and you need more than the meter. You need the controller. Search for "wideband" you'll find info, easily.

 

it says lambda meter on it, which means wideband. do you have a link to this product?

 

thats not correct, lambda is simply a unit of measure in electronics.

Narrow and wide band O2 readouts can both readout in lambda... if i'm not mistaken you can actually buy the autometer gauge in lambda.... why you'd want that i don't know.... that unit is definatly not wideband, a friend has it on his mustang.. not wideband

 

it looks like its just a display....
If you have a wideband, it should display the proper af, but should not be used without a wideband.

 

one issue would be that the display is calibrated for 0-1 volt while most wideband controlers output is 0-5v.

you would still need to have a way to control the sensor like the diy-wb board. that is your biggest problem.

your best best is to save up 3 bills and get the PLX m300 IMO

 

i too am pretty sure thats not wideband... we had an AF monitor that looked just like that on our formula SAE car, and it did not have a wideband

 

The thing sucks don't buy it. My friends have tryed them, and we use them as hockey pucks now, because thats about whaty ou get a 90 dollar hockey puck.

Junk!

 

I have an AEM wideband which outputs both a 0-1 and a 0-5. Both are wideband signals its just the 0-5 has 5 times the divisions for its display, good to the hundredths place.
