Default Cosworth 4x4 lambda M18

I purchased an aftermarket turbo, it has no place for Lambdasensor.
But in the exhaust, I have a hollow which is M18
Genuine Cosworth Lambdas is that we know too small for M18

As we know, the original Cosworth Titania Lambda are 0-1 ohm

Have found Titania lambda that bmw uses ,which has M18, but they have other specifications

http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...2205&ppt=C0018

I have a 3 pin triangle Cosworth connector that can be soldered on
so what plug it have has nothing to say.

1 of 4 wire is the ground so there is no problem there

But where can I find a Lambda Titanium that will work with an original ecu / chip

someone who has done this before?

Motorsport developments use a bosch sensor which works fine and is the standard M18 thread.

I have one on mine

But is it M18? Sierra and escort is as if I've got it just the same, only with slightly different lengths of wires.

I have seen that they have that, but it's really not the right type of lambda.

but if it works fine, I can try. will look a bit more first

titanium is a bit special, it responds a little faster than traditional lambda, and has a slight difference in ohms

To all others who have M18 lambda sensor size on the exhaust.

If you have the original ECU then it is the titanium lambda sensor which is the right choice, this does not work the same as a traditional lamdasensor.
your ECU wont work as intended since the signals are a little different

Burton Power have NGK titanium 12M lambda sensor. (Meant for exhaust housing)
the sierra and escort t34 have the same sensor, the leads are a bit longer on escort.

In order to fit in M18 you can purchase this adapter
