You need a new bung and go with "Innovate" what is innovative? Inovate looks cleaner.

You'll want to leave your stock narrowbands and down-stream 02's intact (otherwise your ecu will throw a fit). Most people weld a separate bung on the drivers side (bank 2) for an aftermarket wide band. Bank 2 tends to run a little leaner than bank 1.

yea thats what i hear. i want a dual port for the most accurate readings of my AFR, but i cant find a dual port setup for a reasonable price. the aem scramble too much and has anywhere from a half second to a full second delay from what ive read. i think im most likely getting the innovate pc-1 setup. either way, the narrowbands gotta go. the jumping christmas tree setup does nothing for me.

PLX DM-100 can display 4 different parameters at once. Just buy 2 SM-AFR sensors to display on the single DM-100 gauge.

I guess I'm confused on your current setup.

If you have an aftermarket narrowband, then you can easily swap it out for a wideband.

If you want to swap out the factory narrowbands for widebands - that's a different story. You'll have to replace or reflash your ecu to accomodate the new widebands.

whats so hard to understand about it? i want a wideband, not sure which one, and im asking if there is a dual port option for either of them so i can get an accurate reading.

What's so hard to understand is your lack of explanation~ Or your lack of understanding of what you're actually trying to do.

AEM makes a dual port option. I'm sure Defi does too. Don't try to run your ecu with it though. Have fun.
