Anyone using a wideband?

Hi all,
I'm getting a PLX R-500 and will be installing it shortly....

Is anyone using a wideband for thier own data logging?

Has anyone used one of these with the narrow band output option to get rid of the stock O2 (the first one, that is)?

Do any of the tuning solutions support use of the wideband signal for setting fuel levels?

For those of you that have a permanant install, where'd you hack the wires? Near the ECU?

I'll be logging EGT and knock as well.....

Matt

Matt, I've seen that on someone's dash, but for the life of me, I can't remember who that was! Peter of M7 has some experience with PLX, but I don't know with this particular unit (R-500)...

I've got an AEM gauge-type wideband left over from my old racecar, but without a way to tune there's no point installing it.

Mth

That's how I'll tune. One other person here sent his A/F map in, and got a better map.

I also have a EFI motor in my Mustang. There are lots of tools for tuning for the Ford EEC-IV motor computer, so it will get more play than just on the Mini.

First things first.....

Also, if you aren't using it, post it for sale. If you had, I would have bought it!
