welshbuddy Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Hey guys I have just gone single Turbo, what I need to know is do I need a wideband to make sure its running right? If so opinions on what models and such. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Yes its preferable to run a wide-band, but if its been mapped correctly you shouldn't have any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yes! popular makes are AEM UEGO, and Innovate LC-1, they can also be connected to aftermarket ECUs for better control, which ECU are you using with your single set up?

(so i think thats a wideband). With the 1jz, as its runs parallel (turbos) it can run it on stock ecu. (littlenum is also doing this). but later date i will buy probs hks f con gold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedrosixfour Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 With the 1jz, as its runs parallel (turbos) it can run it (a single) on stock ecu. Pedro flippin' LOVES this little bit of information! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbuddy Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 thought you might , mines run perfect with stock ecu. we just want to make sure if its running lean or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
