i've tested this before and it works. like Ace83 said, just make sure you tune it or else it'll just dump fuel.


one other thing, if you decide to disconnect the primary O2 sensor connection, make sure you also physically unscrew it from the exhaust manifold or else it will permanently damage the sensor since it won't be "warmed up" for use.


FYI there is more info on this thread as it was discussed before: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=149527

e-manage ULTIMATE is the only piggyback currently available capable of advancing ignition timing. i wish the AEM FIC could advance timing instead of just retarding it.

Yes, I unknowingly ran my car for a long time with a broken primary o2 sensor. Fuel economy was total crap when I went into boost - as they said your tune has to be bang on. Limp mode is when the car won't go over like 2k rpms or faster than 20mph (guessing the exact numbers - it's been a long time since I was in limp mode.) Usually that will happen is there is something wrong with your MAF sensor.

So lets say I disconenect the primary o2 sensor and I have the 440cc injectors.

Even if Im at 6psi it will still run rich at all RPM when in OP3 (open loop 3)?????
So when tuning with the Neo I will actually be subtracting fuel???
