OBWB8m · wideband controller

It’s already talking to your ECU.

A wideband sensor on every cylinder, sent straight into the ECU you already run.

OBWB8mPer-cylinder wideband controller

A wideband sensor on every cylinder.

Cylinders don’t always breathe alike. Small differences in injectors, ports and the manifold can leave each cylinder on a slightly different mixture. A reading from each one shows you which cylinder is off.

All eight readings go straight into your ECU over CAN.

Every cylinder, seen

One sensor per cylinder, not one average.

A single wideband reads the whole bank as one number. When one cylinder runs lean, the others pull that number back to where it looks fine. With a sensor on each cylinder, a lean one has nowhere to hide.

Each channel has its own light on the case. Green means the channel is active.

Eight channels in. One line to your ECU.

How it fits

Three parts. Nothing new to learn.

How it fits: eight sensors in, one line out to the ECU The OBWB8m seen from above, drawn to scale from its CAD model: a flanged case with a mounting hole in each corner, a large sensor connector on the left and one on the right, two round ports between them, eight channel lights in a row along the top edge and the power input at the bottom. Four exhaust runners on each side each carry a wideband sensor. The four sensors on the left run into the left connector as channels 1 to 4; the four on the right run into the right connector as channels 5 to 8. One cable leaves the right-hand round port for the ECU. The sensors and the ECU are not to scale. 12345678 ECU CAN OBWB8m sensors sensors

  1. A sensor in every exhaust runner.

    Each cylinder gets its own wideband sensor. The sensors plug into OberBuilt harnesses, so the sensor wiring goes together without crimping.

  2. It arrives set up for your car.

    The unit ships set up for your sensor type, your AFR units and your ECU.

  3. One cable to your ECU.

    All eight readings share one CAN connection to the ECU you already run.

In the log you already keep

Your ECU sees every cylinder.

The readings travel on the CAN bus your ECU already reads, as its own inputs. Each cylinder’s lambda shows up where you already tune, and your logger records it the way it always has.

Look inside from your phone or laptop

No app. No software. Just a browser.

When you want to look inside, join the unit’s own Wi-Fi and open its page on a phone or laptop. There is nothing to install.

On the bench, it can also record a log straight to your laptop.

Analysis EngineLog analysis for Holley EFI HP and Dominator

Got a Holley EFI HP or Dominator log? Find out what it says.

Tuning leaves you with a log. Export it as a CSV, upload it to the Analysis Engine, and it runs its checks, then lists what it found, each finding marked “Looks good” or “Needs attention”. Your log’s channels are there as charts, so you can check the finding yourself.

It reads Holley EFI HP and Dominator logs, with or without an OBWB8m on the car. Open by invitation from the waitlist for now.

A log goes in, findings come back with a chart A log file is uploaded to the Analysis Engine. It returns a findings card: one finding marked Needs attention, one marked Looks good, and a chart of the log underneath with the stretch that needs attention shaded. your log Needs attention AFR bank agreement Looks good
