Title: ME7.5 how to tell if wideband Post by: wachu on November 24, 2021, 08:25:36 AM Hello,
I own Audi TT 8N 1.8T AJQ from 2000. I have ME7.5 8N0 906 018 AC (00-08-10) and got few questions: 1. Does my ECU supports a wideband? (If not, how can i tell which ones are narrow and wide?) 2. Does the lower right numbers mean the manufacture date of ECU? 3. What is the best ME7.5 ECU i can find? I will have a BAM engine with big turbo and i would love to have: - Wideband o2 - Map switching? - Easiest one to chiptune Thank you in advance.

Or i need to modify the MAF harness as well?

2: idk 3: Doesn't matter as long as it's a wideband ECU from a transverse engine. Swapping a BAM into a (good running) AJQ is a waste of money and time since they both use the 20mm wrist pins. Performance wise AJQ only lacks VVT and wideband, which we can both just swap in using either a complete wideband loom, or just run a few wires. MAF will work, just copy over MLHFM from BAM file.

My last question is shall i go with 4.2 or 4.9 sensor? Is there a specific part number that we need to look for? As i can see that some of 4.9 bosch sensors are cheaper than others.

I think it's 4.2 Title: Re: ME7.5 how to tell if wideband Post by: wachu on November 24, 2021, 05:54:53 PM Part number; 0258007351 I think it's 4.2 Thank you. I've found that ECUs starting with 4B.. 0906018 are much cheaper than 8N.. (3/4x times in my country) Is it because they do not support wideband o2? They've been used is passat b5 / audi a4.

4B has different boot and they are not waterproof, hence that they cant be used Title: Re: ME7.5 how to tell if wideband Post by: denniss112 on November 27, 2021, 04:24:05 PM I got the AJQ too, I tuned it myself and had the AFR checked during APK(yearly inspection). Went from 180HP to 215, and stock torque to arround 335Nm. Running at 1 BAR boost.
What you could do is buy a 3 inch downpipe with 2 O2 sensor inserts. Then buy a gauge set with O2 sensor so you can monitor. The difficult route would be a complete conversion where you need a new ECU, new cable harness and sensor. The improvement would be the possibility to tune it based on AFR values. |
