Is this a good deal for a WB?
 
I found this at Jegs. Is this a good deal? :o Is there anything else you would need to make this work? ???

"Serial data stream included for output of Air/Fuel Ratio (RS 232)"

That would make me think that you could use this with a laptop to record the data. I have never used the AEM products first hand, but it looks like a good deal for those that would have previously gone with a Zeitronix or PLX.

Great ! Just when I order my PLX for $100 more than that, this comes along. >:(

Man, if it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have any.

"User-programmable 0-5v analog output included for use with data loggers and ANY engine management system"

sounds like a good deal to me!!

Holy ----. If I hadn't been such an impuslive buyer over the past 3 weeks I would impulsively buy that!

sounds like a bitchin deal, especially if it comares or overpasses wb's like the plx and lm-1, i think i might get one myself for a price like that

The only issue I have heard about with the AEM UEGO is that it uses a non-linear sensor which makes logging in the editors a bit tricky.

I'm also not sure about replacement sensors on that thing...I think you have to buy them directly from AEM ($$$). Whereas you can get easy replacement Bosch sensors for ~$40 for the other WB units out there.

can this double as your o2 sensor for your computer as well or are there any that do?

The Innovate units (and some others) have two outputs, one wideband and one narrowband. You can send a narrowband output to the ECU and it acts just like a standard narrowband should.

Re: Is this a good deal for a WB?
 
how much does an innovate wideband run that comes with a gauge that you can put into a gauge pod?

the XD-1 is $399 and an attractive piece.

I have sucessfully logged a non-linear in ECUControl, to a degree of accuracy of 00.00X AFR. It's not that hard, just take a bit more work.

It says it uses a Bosch Sensor. Could you not still find one then

But, thee Innovate one is so proven buy guys on here, it may be worth the extra 22.00.

I believe its the same sensor...but they put a different end on the cable :P

Re: Is this a good deal for a WB?
 
But, if it's the same sensor, should the WB read Linear then?

Depend on the controller I guess.
