So I've been reading about some cases where people are having shortened sensor life in the front o2 location. Is this true or is it possibly unrelated. I have a new innovate MTX I want to install in my 2g with DSMlink. I'd like to place it in the stock O2 location, pipe the 5 volt back into the stock sensor input and run narrowband simulate in DSMlink. But if the sensor is going to die every few months that's not going to work as it's my daily driver.
I would simply weld in a new bung and run both sensors but it appears there's almost no extra inputs on a 2g ecu to pipe in the 5 volt signal. I can't use the MDP as I actually smog my car and don't want my readiness flags to be forever unchecked. Anybody have any experience with this? Anyone gotten their wideband to live in the stock front o2 location? Are people killing their sensors cuz they don't know they can't run their car with the sensor in the exhaust and the gauge not running and attributing it to the front o2 location?
