AEM UEGO guage?
Tuesday, December 06, 2005 1:53 PM
BAsically what I want to know, is it worth it or not . I see a few people using it, I know it works and is accurate, but is it worth it or should I just get the Innovate wideband kit. I don't really feel like spending around $500 for the LM-1 stuff, and then get a laptop to data log and all that stuff, I just need a wideband on the car to tune it right now.

The AEM does logging if you have a laptop. I'm pretty happy with mine, but I don't think I would have been any less/more happy with an LM-1.

the big reason i like my inovate wide band is it has a larger range than the aem my friend has , mine will go to about 9 on the richside and stops about 21 on the lean side


plug i got mine in the g/p karo ran for them


both are good gauges


i know auto meter is coming out with them also

I have used Innovative on Vette's, Camaro's and Supra's since Innovative was a company. Never used the AEM, but I am sure both are great pieces. Just make sure YOU get a wideband. It is soo vital to use one while you tune.

Good luck

Can you use the programmable 0-5v output on the AEM UEGO Wideband gauge to replace the narrowband O2 sensor and tap that output to the PCM?

I never had any luck with it, it wouldn't switch fast enough and it gave me a high input (our sensors are 0-2.5v or something).

Just a point of reference, the LM-1 can store data internally which can be analyzed later on a computer. The AEM unit is just a gauge that, supposedly, accurately displays the wideband reading. This was taken straight from Karo's site and I can't wait until I get my wideband sensor installed.

Shipping to canada really isn't that expensive, its the customs fees once it gets there, and that can't be added to the price.

I don't care about customs I can right that stuff off........... the SHIPPING cost......

since it says shipping IS included......

if it is..... GREAT DEAL.... if not ...... that 15 - 25 it will cost ....... I can just buy it from ANYONE from the U.S..............................


and just to clarify from previous posts.....

The AEM wideband comes with a 02sensor that connects directly to the guage.......correct.......

Was that a response to my question? If so, explain.



Re: AEM UEGO guage?

Yeah Zeke...

First, our sensors are 0-2v sensors, the AEM can only emulate 0-5v sensors. It has 4 programs that you can select, the closest one that matches ours (P4), is a 0-5v emulation. Not only that, but there is a specific time that the sensor needs to do a lean-rich and rich-lean switch, otherwise the ecu thinks the sensor is bad. Well I got both of these codes, O2 sensor 1 Bank 1 Lean-Rich switch time, and O2 Sensor 1 Bank 1 High Input.

Both made the ECU ignore the input from the sensor, so it didn't work.

was browsing the board and had a question about this...

does a separate bung need to be welded in after the cat for the AEM unit or does it replace the 2nd sensor?




Re: AEM UEGO guage?

Before the cat, its a primary O2 sensor, you want it about 18 inches from the head.

That's the beauty of a wideband, it has its own sensor for a more accurate reading rather than going off the signal from a stock sensor.
