I can trust it, because if I see a funny reading I know to ignore it...
like if I tuned for 11:1 and then all of a sudden I was seeing 10:1 I know the LC1 has probably stuffed up... and I can ignore that log...
HOWEVER with narrowband sim, the car doesn't have that filtering capability, it places complete trust in the signal being correct... it doesn't ask me first
hehe
space is also an issue with the 02 sensor

Hmm so if I always had a wideband gauge mounted, and occasionally checked WOT AFR's to make sure the LC-1 was accurate, then could it be trusted as a narrowband simulator? I'd rather not weld a bung into the stock downpipe if I dno't have to

well in all honesty I am probably being over-dramatic..
narrowband only revolves around 14.7:1, which the LC1 seems to be fairly good at getting right.. ie its doesn't need to be that accurate.
hey - give it ago, you will find the heater for the narrowband an issue, you *might* get away with disabling that bit to disable the heater for the front narrowband thou...

This oxygen sensor socket is essential for getting the stock front o2 sensor off when still installed on the car:

The stock o2 sensor is at a 12 o'clock position right (vertical)?

So on a USDM-LHD car - if viewing the downpipe from the front (bumper) of the car looking back if then it should be 10:30 position (around 315 degrees) should be pointing up/left towards the passenger side..
Basically, reversed compared to the location shown in the following pics - eq. AMS widemouth downpipe
