Zeitronix Wideband
for those of you that purchased your widebands on the group buy have you guys installed them yet? anyone tuned with it yet? i am holding out on tuning until i get my TIAL blowoff valve from a group buy that ends the 15th . once i get this then im good cause the stock bov seems to be dying at 12lbs on the TO4E . if anyone needs a TIAL bov go to the GB section and you know the rest.

I installed it and was able to do some tuning...some detail and pics at this thread:
https://www.rx7club.com/power-fc-forum-47/tuning-pfc-zeitronix-zt-2-a-373296/
Now I took the car to Infineon raceway for a day of track driving, and I was able to do some more tuning afterwards, but a few days later, the unit broke! I went back and forth with the guy at Zeitronix for a while, and given the symptoms, he thought it was the cable, but after replacing that, it was still not working, so I sent back everything, and he figured that the O2 sensor was busted.
I'm not sure if anybody else has had any problems with this unit yet, and I'm hoping my situation was not the norm. To be fair, my car was tuned fairly rich on the stock turbos, and I was spitting out flames at the track, which is probably not great for the sensor. Still...I mounted the sensor in the midpipe, which is pretty far from the turbos.
I'll report back if I have any more problems.
