It's amazing what you can learn about the car from the factory documentation.
I agree. I just wanted to plug Corky lol
rather than edit that to not sound like a homersexual, i will leave it so you guys get a good laugh.



p.s. i like women

Why won't the narrow band gauges work on the S pipe narrow band sensor (besides doing the antifouler mod to stop the CEL, which then throws it off)

I'm wondering if I could use the wideband 02 sensor sent with the M-300 Bosch controller and remove the stock one. Or do I need to add another bung and run a dedicated sensor that is sent with the M-300 controller? Or can I just tap onto our stock wideband sensor and not use the sensor sent with the kit?
SOmewhere on the plxdevices page, they have a how-to for replacing an existing o2 sensor w/ the wideband one. I should have done this on the lex, but I had an additional bung welded.

THe reason I say this is the car had 4 02 sensors originally, 2 were removed w/ the turbo kit install, and one went bad. All the wiring was done in the ecu to read the one o2 sensor to keep the cel off. As long as it worked and the heater circuit worked, my cel was off. So in retrospect, I could have made the wiring changes at the beginning and replaced the 1 bad o2 sensore w/ the wideband one. sweeet
