I have wondered about using a oxygen sensor with a diesel engine before. It would only be useful at WOT, because at all other times it will say... yeap too much air in there :) I figure it would be interesting to see if the IP can be tuned a little easier with some quantitative measure as opposed to yeap that felt faster. I figure since the 617 doesn't have (shouldn't have anymore-CA) a cat installing an oxygen sensor at the end of the muffler should give the same reading... assuming the sensor has a self-heat system to keep the temperature up.
