    LC-1 Wideband Controller Install

    I'm getting ready to install it into my charger but I'm wondering how far down the dp did you guys mount it?

    Also I am trying to figure out where to pass the wires into the interior of the car..any ideas?

    thanks
    steve

    I have the LC-1 in my van. I'll take pictures and post them tonight for you. It's not going to be the same as your Charger but it will give you some ideas.

    CDN,

    Put the sensor just before the 45 degree bend in the DP. Be sure it is in sideways also. This will prevent condensation etc from hosing the sensor.

    DON'T put it near the turbo................

    FYI,
    Marion

    Ya, the instructions say you can put it outside but I didn't like that idea so mines inside.

    Mine is in the 1st bend after the donut, on the left side, then the box can rest on top of the transmission mount on the drivers side near the airbox.

    A.J. How'd youget the O2 plug through a hole in the body to be able to get the controller inside?

    thanks for the info. I'm wondering about the plug too, the trans mount sounds like a good idea tho.

    I also have the XD-16 gauge to wire in, I'm hoping they give enough slack in the connector wire..

    I ran it through one of the body plugs in the floor. You pull the center of the body plug and it pulls the arms in. I cut a groove, ran the W.B. O2 wire, then put the plug back in. You hit the center of the body plug with a hammer to spread the arms back out. Then I put the box behind the center console on the floor. I didn’t have to cut the carpet, I had enough play in the wire. I ran the wires that plug into the lap top out the right side.







    I just tuck them under when I'm not using them.



    This is it behind the center console.



    I mounted the calibration button and the L.E.D. in the dash. My gauge is a DynoTune gauge. I ran the gauge wire up under the dash mat, under the gauge cluster, then through where the steering column meets the dash.

    http://www.pnw-sdac.org/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=2537 of my O2 in my downpipe

    http://www.pnw-sdac.org/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=2660 you can see it hanging off the tranny mount to the left of the airbox. I usually have it zip tied to the mount but was doing some work around there so it's just hanging. There is pleny of wire to go from the controller up to the a-pillar where I have my XD-16 installed. I don't have any pics of XD but it's just in a Fox body pillar pod from autometer that was trimmed to fit.
