wide band O2 sensor?

rustyguns · 02-22-2007, 04:20 PM

where can I get a good fairly priced wide band O2 sensor for my 2002 Z06?

Is Bosch the best? If so, what is the part number?

Thanks in advance!

do you have a wideband controller? If not you'll need one.

As to which is best innovate, plx, aem, ngk...they are all pretty good. PLX & innovate make a couple of entry level units for ~$200.

yeah i am getting a HP tuner soon

when you say "controller" is that just the Wide band O2 sensor?

otherwise i bet an entry level is all i need, just want to change WOT advance and WOT air fuel mixture on a stock Z06.

If I have probs with knock sensors will those entry level controllers help?

But..........

looking strictly for the W/B sensor in this thread

The w/b sensor is only part of the equation. The controller provides the heater current and translates the w/b output voltage into something your HPT box can work with. I use an Innovate LC-1. The first one I had died. The replacement works flawlessly.

I aggree I have a LM1 from Innovate --it is the best there is sells for about $400 and includes a bosch 02 WB sensor--The other brand of late getting a lot of attention is the AEM--sells for about $280 avail. at RPMoutlet.-----also uses a bosch sensor
The sensor is worthless without the controller--the controller is the reporting device(gauge) that shows the information that the sensor reads.

I just bought an LM1 and love it. Works great and is a great tool. Shop around. I got my LM1 with the RPM module for $350, brand new!
