Thank you sir! Too bad I havent driven it in two weeks. My transmission has seen it's last days.

:eusa_doh: good news is .. 5 speed time ??!?!?!

Also, in for info on this topic.. I've wondered this myself.

You going boost too OG Liq Metal?

I guess I'll just have to try this out myself and report back to you guys hahaha. How would I know if it's reading correctly once I have it wired up ? And yes, Nikita, I'm finally starting lol. Prepare for noob questions shot your way :p. I'm still gathering some things and still reading up on everything, but for the most part, I'm already committed I hope .. I still need an IC/piping ecu, etc etc etc ..

The wideband O2 needs a matched controller circuit to utilize the signal, it's not just swinging voltage like a narrowband. The controller is built in to the ECU, but I've never seen anyone build an out-board controller for the OE sensor to use with a gauge.

Well I guess if you already have a controller such as AEM and you just need to replace your sensor, you could splice this OEM wideband one in correct?

From what my tuner has told me, the controllers are matched to the sensor, so no. The AEM gauge isn't the best example, but the nicer widebands that are used for tuning are routinely calibrated between the sensor and the controller. It's not as simple as wiring them up and getting an accurate reading.
