Glowshift wideband

It seems glowshift just came out with a wideband for a good price. I already have boost/oilpress/egt and all those work great. Anyone used the GS WB yet? Here is the link

What do you guys think?

cant help but be skeptical. they're comparatively cheap, but you usually get what you pay for.

I have the usual compliment of GS gauges as well. I'm sure to purchase this also just to keep things all looking the same. Thanks for the heads up.

Raisng this thread from the dead once again...haha...

I was wondering if anybody has/had any recent experience with the glowshift wideband? And if it's easy to load data via evoscan and etc?

glow shift has the same specs as the prosport wideband using the 4.9 lsu sensor and having the 10 - 20 afr range. I used glow shift on my rx7 and never had a problem and Im using prosport egt and boost gauge on the evo, but I went with the Innovate Lc1 wideband over the prosport wideband.

Also there is a mod in the ecutune section of the forum on how to use your 0-5 volt output from the wideband and wire it to the ecu.

Well, I was just worried that I wouldn't be able to log data via Evoscan and other programs so that tuning would be much easier. I have two other glowshift gauges and I need a wideband so that's why I wanted to know this.

Thanks for the response.

glowshift is cheap ebay crap that will probably end up breaking and not reading accurately.

save ur time and money and get one from a reputable vender.

I recommend Zeitronix Zt1

great system and you can datalog off of it.

just my .02

I personally do not have a GS WB however, you do realize that this GS WB uses one of the best WB sensors available?? I can't speak for the gauge but the sensor it uses is A++

FYI as long as it has a 0-5V analog output it can be logged to EVOSCAN or Mitsulogger without issue.

Anyone else have some feedback?

I currently have an older Defi D-Gause boost gauge but been looking to update and the wideband matching the boost gauge is apealing to me. Being able to tailor the color to match my soon to be had Trustz gauge faces is also really nice.

But I dont wanna buy junk.

I had glow shift on my 240 and Rx7 and I never had any issues with them. They worked great for the money. the only thing that I could say about them is to be careful with the color change button, because I had a friend that some how pushed to hard and pressed it into the gauge housing.
