Bosch LSU4.9 on S8

Post by HondaDrag »

Hi guys, can the Bosch LSU4.9 be wired inn and used on the S8.
I usually use the NTK L2H2 but the new Bosch is cheaper and have quite a wide range of operation.
Thanks

Interface is different so not advisable.

if you want to use the LSU, then you could look at the S6GP+, or an S6 with an I/O expander that has the LSU support built in (S8 with expander is probably too expensive).

Thanks guys but are you sure because I have downloaded the S8 wiring/pinouts guide from website and it says that it can be used.
I have sent an email to Ryan to be sure.
On manual it says that solder bridges need to be changed in order to make different sensors to work.
I will let you know when I have an answer.

Indeed it does say that, along with wiring pins etc. It doesnt look like a mistake ?

I know the S6 doesn't support the LSU but it does indeed look like the S8 supports them :)

Or there's a mistake in the manual.

Ryan confirmed that the LSU 4.9 can be used on the S8 :)

This is his repy
"The Bosch LSU can be used with the S8 but the heater control is not as
good as the S6Plus which means the life span is a little shorter but its
never become an issue for anyone, some clients have been doing this for
years"

Great news as i prefer to use the LSU4.9....faster response, wide range of operation and cheaper to replace especially when used on leaded racing fuels
