PLX Wideband SM-AFR

[NewV]

Just ordered one myself from PLX hope to have it by Christmas, as its my present to myself. Well that and the EFILive, I treat myself well.

Chalky and Rhino - Are you guys planning to replace the stock narrowband or weld a new bung in?

[Chalky]

I would like to add a bung but space is an issue and the car already has the headers on.

For the short term, I work off an NB 02 bung when tuning.

Just got mine today, looks pretty good. I'm a little annoyed I will need to do some soldering to install. Seems like some of this should be done already.

Anybody install theirs yet? If so I always like free advice on what to look out for.

Doesn't it all just plug in to the back of the controller? Only seen pictures of it mind you .

Got mine today as well. Haven't opened the box.:-?

Got mine in a few days ago, Looks great. You do have to solder and assemble the plug that goes into the controller for the output. And you have to solder the 12V plug that plugs into the back of the controller. I got mine installed on my buddies truck, worked great, first time out, no calibration, or anything. On a side note, I did not use the noise filters, and for the 12v power plug, instead of soldering, I went to radio shack and got a 12v cord with a cig lighter plug on one end and the correct plug on the other end for like $8.00.

So did you mount it in place of the NB sensor? If so did you wire the ECM into the NB output on the SM-AFR or just let the DTC errors get thrown?

Glad to hear it works without the noise capacitors, I posted on the PLX forum to see if they were optional or required.

I used a seperate bung right behind the passenger header collector.
