Post by A1ex » Mon Jul 01, 2013 8:22 pm

Does anyone have an experience with them?

Can any brands be recommended? Cheers :)

I've run the Innovate Motorsports LC-1 Wideband Controller for a couple of years now. Highly recommended.

Awesome, that's the one I was looking at. Top on google :lol:

Thinking about using it with the vafc for now then maybe stepping up to something more advance depending on results

I have the AEM UEGO, but in hindsight wish I'd got the PLX. It has a narrow band and wideband output, so you can do away with your OEM O2 sensor and use the original bung for fitment.

To be honest they all do pretty much similar things when it comes to keeping an eye on air/fuel ratios and to help your tuner to tune it.

Any should be compatible with Hondata if they have a 0-5V output, which most do. Just need to tap it into one of the spare wires on the OBD1 ECU and enable it in the software.

What's the point/difference of a "wide band" lambda sensor over a (presumably 'narrow band'?) one?
