Wide Band O2

[Neondog82]

Ok, I know how an 02 sensor and a wide band O2 sensor work but how does having an accurate reading help your tuning. Is it so you can achieve a stoichiometric (14.7:1) mixture. So if you can read it better, what do you do with the fact of that. So know I know exactly what my sensor is reading but I cant do nothing about it? How does it relate to SAFC or a E-Manage? Do you need those tools for it to be worth having an wide band O2? Check out this Page and help me figure out what the point of it is, besides to get readings from your wide band 02. The SRT has a wide band correct? Let me know what you know.

The SRT DOES NOT have wide band sensors...it has a pair of narrow band sensors.

The wideband tells you what your air to fuel ratio (AFR) is. When under power (i.e. high boost) you want more gas than stoichiometric to help keep the exhaust gases colder as well as ensure the best reaction in the chambers...thats where the power comes from afterall...

The wideband will help you with the piggyback controllers by allowing you to tweak your settings for max power as well as safest power. With my emanage, I can up the duty cycle of my injectors and add more gas. This results in a lower AFR. If you lower it enough, you have fuel room for more boost levels from the turbo. With our cars 12:1 or as low as 10:1 seems to work best. 14.7:1 is what you will see at idle or low boost and crusing scenarios.
