ok stingers pimp engine management says you will need Wideband o2 Sensor Controller with Analog Output? im not really sure what there meaning by this...can some clearify what exactly their talking about?
Most widebands have an analog output. I use the AEM UEGO wideband. It is a widely used WB and will work just fine with the PiMP.
thanks again boosted chicken lol do you have a link for the kit you got?
That's what I have as well... though I have had it a year and have yet to install it.

A lot of people also use the Innovate products.
If you go with the AEM unit, the 5v wire will replace the Ford O2 wire at pin 29 in the ECU connector.
do you need a gauge? or could i run just a wide band 02 sensor and be fine?
The AEM is a gauge and controller in one unit. Why do you not want a gauge? Sure is handy seeing the AFR in real time.
I know I am jumping in your threads a lot...just looks like you are headed down a similar path as I did a few years ago. Are you a member on TurboFord? Lots of good tech over there when it comes to squeezing some serious HP out of these little motors.
ugh, dont send him over there... LOL

Agree with boosted chicken, regarding the gauge. While tuning the PiMP, it's a real nice to see the comparison with the EFI analytics dashboard. Now I'm sure the info on the gauge is correct.

As for TurboFord, yes, there is good info over there for the guys modifying their 2.3T. You have to separate the BS from what's realistic. Lot's of opinions! If you have PiMP questions, go direct to Stinger's Forum, where you can interact with Wesk and/or Stinger. Too many at TF are MegaSquirt oriented and it confuses the issues. Good idea's for basic mods, but always be on the look out for BS. Same applies here as it does with all forums. Opinions are everywhere, "Trust but Verify!"

Wesk is now a member here and will more than likely visit the Message Board from time to time, but again for PiMP questions go direct.
ok thanks with all the reply's I don't have a problem with a gauge I just was trying to go the cheap route lol

boosted chicken: I don't mind you jumping in my post all the time your one of the main people I would like to talk to about this stuff since you have the fastest tc so far

I'm not a member at turbo ford but I do occasionally jump on there and see what's going on lately
