Cheap Wideband O2. Accurate A/F gauge

http://techedge.com.au/vehicle/wbo2/default.htm

About $100 US for the box, $120 for the sensor from NAPA

Has anyone tried this out?

a couple of nice features:

1) narrowband simulator- replaces your stock O2 sensors
2) datalogging
3) up to four additional channels of info
4) seperate output/display

I've talked to them and it seems like a pretty good deal. The sensors are supposed to be hard to find, but NAPA says they have them in stock.

A group purchase can be arranged to save shipping costs from Austailia, but I'm not doing that right now (so this is not a group purchase thread)

You sure only $100? Prices are $560 in AU with everything. I thought it works out to around $325 or so?

prices...

$100 for the box
$120 for the sensor
$100 for the display
$40 in cabling

So $260 total to get a working unit to hook into a computer or anything else

And you can get it even cheaper if you're willing to assemble it (especially the display which drops to $35)

As far as I've read... the O2 sensor that they use is identical to the O2 sensor used with all the expensive standalone ECU's --- It should work good. I know a couple of people who have ordered the kit, but do not know of anyone who actually has it in use yet.
