BenKey Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 The Dakota gauge is far better than one of the gauges that tap into your stock O2 sensors. If you look at the sending unit data, it's a 3-wire heated O2 sensor. So it's not using the stock O2, it has it's own. Not sure if it's a wideband type, but may be adaptable. I would definitely get that one over one of the kind that piggyback my stock O2s. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Unless its wideband, its still a waste of money. For $79.95 I doubt it is a wideband sensor, or it is, a very cheap one. As I mentioned above, without the translation for your vehicle from mV to AFR, this gauge doesn't give you any extra useful information. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, I know. I would definitely get this one though, over one of the really cheap type that tap into stock wires. Mv can still give you rich/lean condition, which is what the majority look at any kind of AFR gauge for anyway. I wouldn't use it for fine tuning.

evandostert Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 The cheap one is good for NOS. Just to tell if you are not going to lean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiel Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 Spoke to somebody today, told me the 4-wire sensor is wideband, 2 white 1gray and one black wire. two are from an heating-element inside the sensor one needs 12v and one to the meter, he will fax me the instruction. Edit: ithink he is wrong about the colors: http://www.lambdasensor.com/main/mcolours1.htm Another link http://www.diy-wb.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurbochargedBerserker Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I just bought a PLX Devices WBO2 unit on ebay for $300. I got the M300 because I don't care much about the display or logging from the WBcontroller -- only really care about the linear output for running my megasquirt ECU.

TurbochargedBerserker Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 "megasquirt" <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is that a question, sir? Megasquirt Parish's write up on his MS install (LS1Tech) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenKey Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 And here I just thought it was some kind of nickname for something I haven't been on LS1tech in about 3-4 months for any length of time. Seems a little overkill for my taste, but a pretty cool tool. My luck, all the wires and sensors that have to be run would be done wrong. Didn't exactly like the part about needing an extinguisher. One fire under the hood is enough for a lifetime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurbochargedBerserker Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 I'm afraid to say it Ben, but you might be looking at these when you get the turbo on and start trying to tune in reliable high boost fueling. The good news is that Parish's friend (DieselGeek on LS1Tech) will build a MS for you and make the wiring harness. Seems like a really cool guy.
