Has anyone installed a AEM Wideband UEGO on the S-pipe? If so was the wire long enough to route through the firewall and install on the a-pillar gauge pod? I plan on getting this as my next mod so I will know my A/F.

 

AEM includes a long enough wire to mount it pretty much anywhere you want. I have a question though are you running any kind of forced induction? If not then a wideband would be kind of a waste for you. I mean you can buy whatever makes you happy just wonder.

 

The $260 UEGO is the cheapest alternative to haveing a LED blinker gauge in our cars.

At least you will know whats going on, when you get some boost.

 

ill probably just munt mine on the downpipe. It should be long enough though that thing is freakin long!

is it possible for the uego to take the place of the secondary o2?? if it is ill just put mine there.

 

I agree and I wouldn't waste the money on a narrow band A/F gauge at all. But if you're not going F/I or N2O it doesn't really do a whole lot for you. Now if you're getting things ready for FI then go for what you know.

 

Sorry but I don;t see why you say it will not help those with F/I. You need to know what your A/F is so you can tune your car it doesn't matter if its all motor or forced induction. My car isn't forced induction just going to get the wideband so I use that to help tune with.

 

What are you going to use to tune the car? A SAFC is useless under 4K RPMs. You could go with the E-manage but I think those also have problems below 4K but I'm not 100% sure. You only real option after that is the AEM EMS which is in the $1400 - $2000 range. The EMS is a god send for a tuner but it is expensive. Like I said before I'm not knocking you for buying it at all. $260 for a wideband is just crazy when the retail in closer to $500. I might pick one up for that price. lol

 

Power enterprise Camcon. If you look at my signature you will see my mods. I have been to the dyno 2 times now and my a/f needs to be tweaked quite a bit. If I had a digital camera I could show you the a/f on the dyno but I don't have a digital camera. My a/f is really bad and definately needs to be adjusted all across the board.

 

soooo can you put the uego in the secondary o2 sensor or not?

 

No, you're ecu still needs that sensor. The reason I said s-pipe for me is I have a empty spot there. I relocated my second o2-sensor on my custom midpipe where I have a cat with a o2 bung in it.

 

bah i didnt think it would be that easy bloody thing costs $130 which i feel is stupid.

 

How does the camcon work anyway? I've heard people mention it but I don't know a whole lot about it. I guess if it can tweak your fuel map and hold then you may have a use for a wideband.

 

You can adjust your cam profile 20 +/- degrees starting at 2,000 rpm - 9,000 rpm. You can adjust your fuel up to 20% more or take out up to 10%. from 1,000rpm- 9,000 rpm. Both cam and fuel are adjusted in 500 rpm incriments. If you have 2,000 set at + 5 and you have 2,500 set at +10 then it will average the two and adjust it between 2200-2400 with that average of 2 or 3. I like it. I just need to go the the dyno so they can tune it for me and adjust the cam to the best gain, then when I have a wideband I can fine tune my fuel map.

 

I hope everyone gets what I was trying to say. If you adjust your setting +5 at 2000 rpm it will give you +5 at 2000 rpm. If you have +10 set for 2500 rpm then you will get +10 at 2500 rpm. But between the settings it takes an average of the two which would be + 2 or 3 and it will have the 2200-2400 set at +7 or +8.
