anyone know of a how to to install wideband? i got a autometer cobalt one and i was just wondering if anyone made a how to? i searched and didnt find anything

 

Why does a car with a muffler and an intake even need a wideband?

Just saying.

 

there is one for the lc-1. well not quite the same as what you have will give you a good idea where to run the wires

 

oh i got a header/downpipe sitting on my table, and hptuners is coming next week.

just saying

 

i would like to know this too

 

x2..

 

yeah thats pretty much all i am looking for. thanks

 

Ok. I have a full exhaust/intake......no wideband.

Just saying

 

all your questions have been answerd.

 

i has a wideband

 

ok i have all of that and hptuners

just saying

i got my cobalt one for 200 bucks used off a local memeber, since i will be tuning my car i will need it, so i bought it.

 

srsly. wideband on non boosted is kinda redundant

 

Cool.

 

well not really, sure you can guess a/f when tuning, but i want to get the best/learn well i tune so i can tune other peoples vehicles. simple the wideband is going to help me/and my mentor monitor what i am doing and give me a better understanding on how to tune

i agree, it is kind of pointless, but its more so for teaching purposes then anything.

 

I has a dwarf hamsterz.

 

if ur going to tune the car..wideband is a nice addition

 

I can haz more Wideband please.

I have it just to moniter my tune

 

I've got a wideband too...but it's still sitting in my closet Ebay FTW!

is this the one you have?

 

yes thats the one i have


attempting install of header/downpipe in roughly 20 mins...hopefully it goes well...

 

yeah i liked that one and wanted to get it but i got talked out of if, now i have the NGK wb take pics and what not of the install! gl

 

i paid 200 bucks off a loca memeber so i am not complaioning, ill take pics as soon as i am done and upload them after work.

 

nice, 200 is a good price. Sweet! ...well now im off to buy a truck! lol

 

Widebands are simple to install.

First you need to find out how far off the header the sensor needs to be. If im not mistakin its 12-16 inches.

Now, get your bung welded in place. ($20)

Screw in the sensor.

Run the wires from the wideband underneath the car...use zip ties and zip them down to anything you can use.

Run it to your engine bay.

There is a rubber bung in the firewall. You can see it underneath the steering wheel on the inside...will have wires and **** going through it.

Push it out.

Run the wires from the sensor through it.

Mount your gauge.


Run power / ground / (accessory if needed -- aka another power) to the gauge.

Plug in the sensor.



Done.

 

Not trying to be a dick... but these two quotes in the same thread make me very uneasy.

 

I was thinking the same.


However, ive seen people do 'odd'er things...and still accomplish them.



I especially enjoy the threads where i see people saying:

Turbo kit ordered! Im so happy!
then 2 days later
How much work do you think it would be to put on a TVS supercharger?

Ok.....
