Came across this in one of our new catalogues at work

Scroll down a bit.

Do you think you could make it work on our cars?
I have done Zero research on O2 sims yet, just came across it, figured I'd post it.

Yeah, the power commander is for sport bikes. they make on-the-fly reprogrammable ecu-type things (fuel/air maps). good stuff, but not for EPs.

I know what it is for. I work at a bike shop.
Just posted to see if it may be a cheap solution to those who need O2 sim.

The text on that site says that it will "disable" the closed
loop. But I think closed loop is what we want, correct? i.e. you
want it read the sensor. Hondata mentions something on their
site about running open loop for tuning (b/c that way you aren't
fighting the ECU's changes), but if you're in open loop, you'll
get a CEL.

I went ahead and ordered the Casper's 02 Sim. It was expensive
($80) and I think you can make one yourself for cheaper, but it's
plug and play and sometimes that's hard to beat. I'm now close to
400 miles with it on and no CEL.
