Wide Band Questions

I've got a couple of questions about wide band o2 sensors systems. 1st How does the DIY one at www.DIY-WB.com compare to the Innovate Motorsports unit. 2nd Where is the most desirable location for the sensor to be mounted.

Not really an easy comparison. One is an inexpensive device that gives great bang-for-the-buck. The other is a commercial unit. One big differnce is that the Innovate unit comes with a display. For me that is not required, I data log. Others feel it is a necessity. If so, then there are several display options available for the DIY-WB.

Many vehicles have been successfully tuned with the inexpensive DIY-WB. I have a couple of DIY-WB units and use them with no qualms.

I feel it is best to locate it just after the two down pipes meet.

It should be mounted in such a way that the sensor points down, so condensation doesn't collect on it.
