If you add a wideband kit to a car and dont change anything besides that will you get more power and better gas milege. Im assuming this because the ecu sees the a/f ratio better. Anyone know?

 

Our ECU does not use a wideband signal. If your car is stock you can add a wideband kit and some fuel controler like safc, then with some tuning you can get few hps.

 

Yea Im planning on adding a wideband kit. I will eventually get it tuned by AMS. For now I was wondering if it would help at all

 

The wideband kit just by itself will have no affect on hp or anything of that sort. The wideband kit will just be showing you your air to fuel ratios, although in combination with an apexi S-AFC you should be able to smooth out your a/f ratio and gain a few horsepower. I am currently using the safc and a wideband kit for my turbo setup and it works great.

 

Ok lots of questions. I will soon be receiving my wideband, with a egt sensor and o2 sensor. Will also be purchasing a/f sensor/guage. For Cost Reasons, will most likely go with safc II. I'm all n/a but will be adding rpw's modified intake, larger injectors, and fuel pressure (not regulator, something else).

1) will the safcII work for this setup (basically the whole rpw package is because of returnless fuel rail, and I can't get FPR) this is to somehow ix that problem.

2) can I still have this professionally tuned with safc or must I get e-manage.

3) correct me if I'm wrong: 1 egt sensor in 4th cyl tube of header, 2. a/f sensor in 1st o2bung on high flow cat, o2 sensor on 2nd o2 bung on cat? or is it o2 sensor on first bung and a/f on second.... or is o2 sensor the same as a/f? Thanks doods.

 

So I am looking at widebands for my turbo'd lancer and I wanted to know how the AEM 6-in-1 uego wideband compares to the innovate or zeitronix.. Its about 120 dollars cheaper.. I just want to make sure that there isnt a difference between the brands. I think I figured it out.. The AEM is just a gauge and the other brands Widebands, you can acually tune with them?

 

So it's worth it?

SAFC I or II w/ the wideband kit? From reading I'm seeing this combination is optimal. I'm still Stock. So running these two things, will improve performance and increase mpg? Would the piggy-back from RRM even be necessary? Or shall I need to get all 3? I got my EGT gauge already, so I can get the readings properly. I don't have money for turbo right now, so i'll maintain N/A w/ alot of mods.

 

I'm wondering if the boomslang harness for the SAFC II wired for an evo 8 (gonna buy it already wired from someone on the forums) works for a Lancer ES auto ?

 

dont think it works but its so easy to install

i installed in 2o minutes...

i posted in an install thread a while ago.
