Hello everyone. This is going to be kind of a noob question but i'm going to ask anyways. haha Well anyways, I'm starting my k-swap in my ek hatch right now. I pretty much have purchased everything to get it in and run. The only thing i haven't purchased yet is a wideband o2. If i was to purchase a innovate db kit, will the wideband still read in my kmanager? I want to make sure before I purchase anything. If it doesn't then I'll stick to getting the OE one. Please let me know. Thanks

Just stick with the oem one. 02-04 rsx type s.

innovative isn't interchangeable with the oem unit, so best to just go with oem.

random question: always wondered if the oem primary o2 was good enough to use on a boosted car, instead of buying another wideband o2 and gauge?

 

[kommon_sense]

why would the fact that the car is boosted make a difference?

Now, I do believe that if you run pig rich that you can kill the oem o2 rather quickly.

well I didnt know how fast-reacting/reading it was, and if it truly was a reliable wideband oxygen sensor... thanks

ohhh ok...but another question, would i be able to use a wideband gauge with the oem one? I wanna make sure before i order anything. I just want to be able to monitor my wideband.

I'm sure you can make a guage work somehow, but probably not worth it. You can monitor AF through Kmanager (on your laptop) or buy a second wideband and monitor it that way. Or you can get a Neptune Nunerview device and hook it up to your Kpro. That thing gives out multiple readings, I think that would be worth it.
