That sounds like a good idea. Only one sensor and if I remove the wideband for whatever reason the stock one can go right back in. Is the LC-1 reliable as it appears the electronics in the cable assembly reside in the engine bay?

my old supra was running an Innovate LC-1 wideband which has 2 programmable
outputs. default is one wideband and one narrowband. I fed the narrowband to
the stock ECU and it LOVED it because it's a much more precise sensor so the
voltage stepping was a bit tighter.
