There was a thread about this a week ago.Heard it's real good.But look at the pricing.That 279 price does not come with the screen.Runs a little bit more than lm-1 I beleive.

and i belive to read boost, your gonna have to get the boost sensor which is additional cost, but check on the site again.

I am going to be getting this wideband because i love the simple software interface, and the datalogging between the tps,rpm, and afr for 279 dollars. plus i have a laptop that i will be able to view this with. i think it said 9 hours of dataloggingfor the zx-2. :o also the lm-1 to get the rpm signal on your datalogged charts you must have the rpm converter. The zietronix measures at 74 samples per second, unlike the lm-1 which is 12 sample per second.

just my .02 cents

I run one and its great, I would go with it again for my next wideband. I didnt get the screen though because I displayed the A/F ratio on my Profec e-01. It has nice easy to use software that allows you to use on a laptop for some good tuning aswell.

I heard this heat-sink is good to use with the LM-1 and the Bosch sensors. The Zeitronix kit says it uses a Bosch sensor, I dunno if its the LSU4.2 or not, but it's something you might wanna look into.

if the exhaust stream is 1300F more than 12" past the turbo you're probably melting pistons.

I wanted to use the zeitronics wb but if you're using a third party datalogger, the voltage to afr conversion could get tricky. zeitronics is one of the only few whose output voltage is not linear.

It is linear, they have a section in the intructions that tell you what to input in your metering device so it reads corectly, something like .0 v = 9:1 afr and 5 v is equal to 20:1 afr and your metering device should be able to fill it in between the voltages. Ive displayed it on my Eo-1 since day one.

Also you dont need that stupid heatsink thing, I ran mine for over 12k miles and it still read perfect till the day my motor saw the bright light and the end of the tunnel.

Also put me down for one, when I can afford it cuz it sinks up with e-manage in a mad tight way, you can use the boost sensor for that one and plug it into the e-manage, F the E-01 its to much $$. Plus data logging for 500bux (with pressure sensor) 565 w/ egt now thats a deal IMO

directly from their website:



if you set it up as linear on the e-01 you're getting wrong readings. i bet the emanage displays a stoich mixture at ~1.4v when it sould be 2.5v
