plx's websire talkabout all this bullshit about wiring resistors and capicitors into the stock narrowband wiring to the ecm. I want one i can simply take the stock narrowband out replace it with a wideband sensor. i dont wanna have to do an wiring to the stock narrowband sensor. is there any thats just plug and play no cutting wires or soldering capicitors or resistors. I want plug and play. from the O2 sensor upto the guage, besides the 12volts and ground...

You dont have to cut any wires. You might have an SES light come on saying that your missing a Narrowband. Lots of people just pull out the narrowband and install the wideband.

If you can delete the code from the PCM you will be fine.

The resistor is to emulate the voltage to keep the ses light from triggering.

This can be used with a wideband if you purchase the module. This is PLX's version of the Aeroforce Tech.

Let me say, they did wonders with this one.

Watch the vids!

Oh. My. :hump:

Derek, you have a pm.

lc-1 sucks

if you just pull out the narrowband and install the wideband then the ecm is not gonn get any kins od signal fron an O2 sensor. Which in turn your fuel trims are gonna be like shit. i am running cats for right now. could i put it in the bung after the cats or does it have to go before, i can delete the codes from the ones after the cats.
