Will a non-turbo O2 sensor work in a turbo car?

I have a 1990 talon awd turbo. i was wondering if the O2 sensor out of a Non-Turbo Talon would work for me? So my question is if the O2 sensors the same in the turbo and non turbo models.

Yes i did search.

Sensors are the same but the length of the wires that attach the sensor are not. The turbo ones have longer wires. When I turboed my car I had to extend my nt o2 sensor wiring. I have recently replaced it with a turbo 02 sensor. THeyre not too pricey and is allways a good thing to have new and in good shape. I say buy the correct one.

Check the internet theyre only like 50 or so. Sparkplugs.com is where I got mine I think.
 
yeah i had a N/T one laying around so i used that. I made the wires longer but i'm gonna go ahead and get an OEM one. The car still runs the same. So i guess that wont the problem.
 
Far too many people mess up the "simple" splicing of a universal sensor and damage the ECU so we strongly recommend that people buy the OE replacement. The fact that it's available at pretty much the same cost is just gravy. :)
