Default techedge wideband

Anyone have any experience with techedge? My friends tell me if it's good enough for an RX-7, it's definitely good enough for an S2000. There's a huge price difference between Techedge and some others that I'm looking at, and big price differences tend to scare me. So I'm just basically checking here to see if anyone has any experience or knowledge on the subject. If it's fine, I'd much rather save the money, but on a subject such as A/F, I'd much rather be safe than sorry. So would I be safe...or sorry?

Thanks,
Dave

Are you trying to say that the RX7 is better than the S2000 then? From what I have read the Techedge works....

i'm not trying to say anything...but if you want to go that route, i'll go ahead and say that I could destroy most any S2000, on any condition, with an RX-7. But back to the point, my friend's friend just got the techedge wideband for his rx-7, i'm just wondering if anyone had any experience or any pros/cons for it. My friend is the one that stated if it's good enough for an RX-7, it's good enough for an S2000. I personally like my S2000 better, and am looking for decent feedback on the techedge wideband. Enough of the rx-7 vs s2000 already...to each his own...and i personally don't see how that was even interpretted from my original post. But anyhow....

Damn......


The Techedge unit simply drives the O2 sensor and translates the lamada voltage in to a usable voltage determining the air fuel ratio. It also has a display which I believe is optional. The sensor it's self is made by Bosch or by NTK (and resold by Honda as the L1H1 sensor) So even though the board is made by a little known company, the O2 sensor it's self is a made by a huge company...

There really isn't any advantage or disadvantage over any of the units, given that they all work. The differences are mainly in appearance, price, ease of installation, and documentation.

awesome, thanks!

I don't really know all that much about wideband...i just know what it does in the long run. I figured some would be more accurate than others. I've always used the one at the dyno, but wouldn't mind having one of my own to monitor.

thanks again for the info!
