Wide Band for DRZ???

[Entensity]

I was searching around the forums but couldn't find too much on wide band setups. I believe I would have to drill a hole and mount a O2 sensor in my head pipe, I heard 3 or 4 wire O2 sensors are the best. Anyone here have experience with this and if so what would be the best Wide Band and O2 combo?

Only one I really found was Dynojet Wide Band Commander 2, what wire would I hook it up to get RPM? and how far down the head pipe do I mount the O2 sensor?

Thanks in advance!

Innovate Motorsports has a decent wideband setup. And your not looking for o2 sensors, your looking for wideband sensors. There is a huge difference so don't worry about 3 wire vs 4 wire, just focus on widebands, in particular the Bosch LSU 4.2 sensor. If your a big DIY'er, 14point7.com has some really cool options for not a lot of money..

what is a wide band?👍

well ware should I start ---- I use a WBo2 in my 300HP turboed satrn

1st -- all WBo2 sencers are 5 wire and need a small computer to run them this is why the WBo2 gauge are over $200 most of the time

with out that little computer in the guage the WBo2 sencer is sell is worthless

2nd yes you would need to have a o2 "bun" welded onto your exhoust --- it needs to be 8 inch or so away from the head

I guess you could use that even thow I see no reazon why you would need it

Eddie can tell you what you need for the rite jetting

now if I was to turbo a DRZ400 O yes thew furst thing I would get is a WBo2

you want to just view a/f ratio or do you want to data log it too?

[Jaketinaboxer]

i don't see a point to an o2 in a carb bike. Its not like your going to be able to adjust on the fly like with a pc5

you use the data to make jetting adjustments.

I want data logging also, I know I really dont need it, but I would like to dial in the bike as much as I can and I would love to see exactly what it is doing.

[Entensity]

Thanks for the link to Innovate Motorsports, Im thinking this is the best bet for my bike

innovate set up is nice.

Before you commit, review the Dynpjet setup too. Having a logger is great.

The expense of the Innovate when you add on the bits and peices gets up there. Just saying do a little compairson shopping. I d/l data to a lap top and analyze it there. so no need to for a fancy read out. Plus with the raw data, I can make my own charts and the like.

[Entensity]

Very true... I dont need anything that shows real time data, just something I can throw on the laptop to see whats going on. Still a bit confusing which setup to go with though, I will call Innovate tomorrow to see what best fits what I need to do.

I use PLX WBo2

Since there is not ram air effect on the drz i wouldn't see there being any change at speed in the jetting. Seems like a dyno would turn the same results.

[Entensity]

PLX WBo2? who is that from? I did not see that on their site... too many choices, I just want something that works good and accurate that I can hook up to my laptop after a ride and see the results.

you are missing the point completely.

yes,dyno tuning results in the same thing.

data logging with a wideband is for guys that dont have acess to a dyno or that dont care about power out put number.

they want to do it themselves.

iowaBClivewire thanks for the info, not a bad price at $199.

Looking at it more the Kiwi Wifi + iMFD looks pretty cool, can send the info right to my iphone, still trying to figure this out. So when this thing is hooked up, do I do a few runs and then turn it off? then look at the data? or do I ride all day and leave it on?
