Wideband controller

Is this the same idea as the wideband controller kits that everyone is building?

Looking at some of those prices make me think twice. I think I'll stick with making my own DIY-WB

Yes, their unit does look promising. Even the price is good as it also includes a sensor.

FWIW - According to this thread, the Bosch sensors are only $30 now:

It is a fluke. Most likely the part has the wrong price on it. Heck you can't buy a decent 3 wire heated NB for that.

WB O2 sensors are from $200 and up.

Check out what Innovative sell the sensor for. [O2 Sensor (Bosch LSU 4.2) - $59] This is directly off their web site.

The $30 VW sensor is a wide band sensor.You can use the $30 sensor with Innovate and Tech edge controllers.Also it is a Bosch sensor a LSU-4 not the same as the L1H1 sensor.The LSU-4 dosent read as rich as the L1H1(LSU-4__10.5 to 1AFR L1H1__8 to 1AFR)also the response time is a little less than the L1H1.
