Did you weld a third bung on, or did yours come with one? Mine only has the 2 bungs.

Reminds of that ol' joke...

A hooker goes in to see the doctor. She asks the doctor if he can give her a new *******. The doctor, perplexed by this request, asks why?

The hooker responds, "Business has been so good, I want to open a new location."




I'm here all week. Try the veal.

Ahhhh ok now I get it. Pretty accurate - but in some, uh, strategic areas she somehow became a he

sweet deal. I'll see about dual WBO2 runningNB emulation averaged to the sensor. There is a fairly straightforward circuit to do so, so I will see if I can make it work on a bench first, then report my results.

I have a new X-pipe ready to fit, and I was going to run a WBO2 sensor for the Shark Tuner 2 in one bung, and the standard NBO2 for the engine ECU in the other.

My intention was to buy the ST2 with the logic for the WB inbuilt, and leave the WB in the pipe, with no connections when not tuning.

BUT... then I read (on the TechEdge web-site) that a WBO2 should NEVER be left without power while the engine is running. So there goes THAT plan.

Ruh-roh. That's not cool. I didn't know that. I'll have to do some research. I leave mine in there whether I'm monitoring it or not. I plan to hook it up permanently, but haven't yet.

There's a wiring harness supplied with ST2 that allows you to easilly power the WBO2 from the existing O2 sensor 3 pin plug. So it won't ever get unpowered. The harness also allows you to feed the simulated NBO2 signal from your WB back into the LH ECU.

If you want to use a sensor in each bung you can use the harness to connect both into the system so they are powered as soon as the engine is running.

One more instance of why John is the god of 928 tuning - he already has solutions for problems that I am only just discovering.
