Wideband Kit

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Innov...60744023QQrdZ1

Do you guys think this is a good deal? I'm only looking for an A/F gauge that I can place near my tach so I can pay attention to what's going on. The display screen is small enough to do that with this kit. Thanks guys!

for what you are doing yes it is prolly enough, I am debating between the LC-1 and the plx250 so I can use my new Interceptor as a display. I know the LC1 works with HPTuners but it requires a seperate bung. The plx250 MAY work with HPTuners but it does not require a seperate bung.

this kit looks like it would be fine. small display, but looks like it has the capability of being logged on a computer with the pc interface. not a bad price either. just remember you'll need to have someone weld in a wideband o2 bung. once u weld that, you can't put it back to stock.

that looks like a good deal. Lots of tuners like the LC-1 wideband. Putting in another bug isnt' a huge deal. Just take the b pipe to an exhaust shop and they can easily put it in.

that part isn't difficult, but i know most cobalt owner will want to eventually revert back to stock. this makes it a little more difficult to do so.

You can actually buy a plug to fit into the bung to seal it off if you wanna remove the sensor for whatever reason.

If you need a WB O2 you are probably doing some serious tuning and mods and putting it back to stock for whatever reason isn't a compelling reason in my mind. If your worried about putting it back to stock then definetly get the other WB O2 PLX thingy.

Also I think the Innovate WB O2 is more advanced in it's ability to stay calibrated.

For the record I have a Turbo XS tuner lite that I use and I am happy with that. It links into my DTEC FC so I can log AFR with other variables.

I wanted it just to see where I'm at with different pulleys, but if I can use it to interface with the HPTuners software, that's even better. I want the small digital gauge because I want to mount it behind the steering wheel on the plactic piece so I can see it while I'm cranking along. My problem is that I'm so focused on the road and RPM gauge that, I never see the boost gauge, so I figured if I mounted it near the tach I'd catch it in my view.
