The techedge unit uses the same sensor as the other kits, so accuracy shouldnt be effected..

I'll letcha know how it works

Cool, I looked all over for the sensor and couldn't find one in stock anywhere.

They arent easy to find however, your local napa store can get em for roughly $125 a piece.

**** -

The Napa sensors are like $300 - 350 !!

Supply & Demand, doh..

They were ~130 several months ago, but apparently a wide-band o2 epidemic has hit and they doubled the price!!

I wasnt aware of the price hike. I know if you purchase the FJO kit, you wont get reamed on the sensor.

The FJO kit has several pricing levels. The best kit to get is with the RPM Inductive pickup and datalogging option. With everything said and done, youre looking at about $1000.

Seems steep until you begin to add up your dyno costs for wideband printouts.


The bitchen thing with the FJO is you can make it into a mobile setup. This way, you can get a couple people to go in on it and absorb the costs.

I just ordered the FJO with the datalogging. I also ordered the sensor through them. It is almost $1k shipped to your door, but I have seen other A/F meters in the $3k range. I think you get the most bang for the back with the FJO....or maybe it's the less bang for the buck if we are talking about our motors.

Techedge

Should be pretty accurate. They just made the circuits per the spec. They're really nice guys, throw them an e-mail and they will discuss accuracy etc...

I'd wait for their 2.0 version which is coming out shortly (early June)

I was going to wait for the new version, but I figured a lot can happen by June. I'm hoping they have an upgrade path. Most likely it's just an 02 sensor change, which most companies are doing because they are hard to come by these days.
