Default Wideband 02 systems?

I just wanted to know what you guys are using. I just bought the Sniper special forces software. And made some basic tunes ,but i havn't made changes to any of them since i don't have a wideband setup yet. Just curiousof what you guys are using and what brands to stick with. Also curious of where you guys installed the new widebandsensor.

innovate LC1 w/ gauge here. I put the gauge in the rear 02 bungs. I installed it myself in probably 2 hours of jacking around. It's very easy and the instructions were awesome!

Autometer mounted in the car for monitoring and LM-2 I install during tuning. I use the rear o2 bungs.

I have an NGK wideband system (it's an earlier model than this one), that I've had for years; it's on its 3rd sensor and works well.

Autobarn has it for $270.

If you have cats it seems that installing the Wideband O2 sensor downstream of them will not give an acurate reading?Does anybody know if that is true or is there a calibration factor that takes this into account?

We sell a lot of the Innovate XD-16 Kits with the Gauge and the Autometer Kit.

Another real nice solution has been the Aeroforce Kit. It is a gauge that is very versatile and plugs into the OBD-2 port. You can then read Boost, Temps, use it as a wideband, etc. It has a lot of options and you can customize the look of the gauge as well.

AEM EUGO here.


Slobra, you can use the Aeroforce to read it but you still need a controller like an LC-1 to feed the data to the gauge. I was going to do that but I decided not to as there are other parameters I wanted to monitor with the Aeroforce and I use my wideband for tuning multiple vehicles.

I am aware of what needs to be used for the Aeroforce Gauge. As well for the other parameters, you need certain sensors, etc. But you are right, if all you need is a Wideband, the Aeroforce might not be cost friendly. The AEM, Innovate, Autometer would be the cheaper alternative.
