<< Hi Guys!  NGK (USA)  is located in Michigan, and the last phone number that
 I have for them is 1-810-489-0110.
 
 The sensor is a TL-7111-W1 UEGO sensor ($600), the controller is a TC-6000
 ($400) and the wiring harness is TH-2009-W1 ($60).  The controller comes in
 "A, B, C, D" versions, for  analysis of A/F ratios of 10-30, 14-54, 15-50,
 and 10-15.5 respectively.  The output voltage is roughly 1-5 volts, and is
 highly nonlinear.
 
 The sensor harness connector utilizes 7 connections.  Basically, it is a
 6-wire sensor (as made for Horiba and others) plus one other terminal for a
 compensation resistance.
 
 The repeatability and response are pretty good, but the life is short.  The
 sensor does not like sudden contact with moisture!  >>

Just a question about usage then. How is it for a turbo App? Or would it have
to be downstream of the turbo to keep the temp down? And, you mention that
moisture is a problem. Does that mean that Water Injections would destroy it. 
On the same thought, has anyone tried water injection with a lambda sensor and
got readings? I wonder what a basic carb type engine with a sensor in the
exhaust would differ in readings with and without water. Any comments would be
appriecated.
