Just to make sure we're all on the same page here, there was some vagueness around this wide-band thing. You can't just install a wide-band o2 sensor. You can put one into the exhaust and monitor it with something else, either a gauge, datalogging software, or whatever...but you can't tie it into the factory PCM. No way. You might even end up hurting the PCM (wideband 02 controller output is typically 0-5V). If I read it wrong and this is what you meant, then nevermind!

Just another note on the Widebands....if anyone is going to install one, you do need to use a controller with it. The output of a WBO2 is not linear with AFR change, the controller corrects this.

I put "gauges" meaning you needed a guage to read it. I guess it could have been explained better.

The one I'm looking at has a wire that can be hooked to the sct for dataloging. Again I guess I could have explained better. I was just going for the basics. Some do have a cable to connent to a laptop for dataloging as well. I will kinda get to skip that step the sct and software should do all the hard work I hope
