There is the blitz A/F Analyzer and the Motec PLM. both are about $1000.00+.

i used one when i dynoed my car just dont remember which one it was. doesnt Haltech make one too?

GruvyTune

you can do it yourself and only spend 180 bucks for the same thing:

i cant speak for it since I just ordered a kit myself.

thats based of a stock o2 sensor if i am not mistaken. You can easily tap the o2 voltage and check using a digital multimeter for less.

the systems ive seen use a different oxygen sensor that is more sensitive. stock ones that come with cars are only accurate at stoich. 14.7:1. the further you get the worse it is.. we want accuracy all across the board. isnt that the point of a wideband?

GruvyTune

not true.
based on the UEGO sensor that you can get for $120 from partsbin (the Bosch version). Its a 5 wire wideband sensor using a Nernst cell.
Its the same one the Motec PLM Lambda meter uses.

so then whats the point of the wideband? what are you paying $ 1000 for. has anyone ever seen a comparison between the $1000 one and the ones you can make for less thatn $200?

Which kit did you order? the techedge one?

ANy opinions on the FJO wideband? I am looking into getting that when I go turbo in March. Just curious if anyone has had good/bad results with it. Thanks

Has anybody actually built the DIY Wideband controller and used it?

Dustin, I know you bought the kit if im not mistaken? Any news?

wow thanks for that thread. Im still a little confused but ill look into it some more. Im just looking to use it as a tuning tool on a car that I install turbo or nitrous on. Ill be getting into an established business in about a month so im looking for all my tools from now so i can start off on the right foot. at first the cars are going to be using regular bolton kits or any custom kit that I make, but from there the sky is the limit. I want to be able to use it for base kits as well as with standalones. thanks so far guys. dean

I just looked at this site you can purchase the controller/input kit for around $450. Will this work with the honda wideband as I can see the connector is the same?

Xerxes

How are you using it? Did you just get a bung welded onto your exhaust? I assume you've used it for other cars too, how did you mount the sensor for those?


89turboteg:
If you've got a wideband and are tuning customer's cars, you can use it for nearly anything! If they have boltons and something programmable like an FPR & VAFC then you can tune them for max power and they'll love you

It uses the honda wideband sensor that came in some civics, plugs right in-the connector that comes on the controller is a honda connector. And yes you just weld a bung into your exhaust or install it where your regular o2 sensor is now. (before the cat)

there are so many names and different sensors and stuff. now im not sure what to get haha.. sounds like the motec is the best one....
