Which wideband and where?

I'm looking to put a wideband on my 99' 4Runner Limited (5vz-fe) since I think my front O2 sensor has gone bad. I'm planning to go boosted in the near future, so I'll need a wideband anywys.

Can I replace my stock O2 sensor with an aftermarket wideband? Will the computer read it ok? If so, which one should I go with? I don't mind if I need to cut the connector off the old (stock) O2 and solder it onto the wideband.

as far as I know .. no .. wide band is an "added" feature to stock . you will still need the stock o2's to satisfy the computer

Update.

I have Califorina emissions (2 cat converters) so I think mine are actually A/F sensors (i.e. wideband) as opposed to the old style O2 sensors.

I guess there's no reason to go after market then if I already have widebands on there?

Yeah, you're going to have to replace the stock sensor.
The Innovate will help you when you go boosted to accurately monitor everything.
I would not recommend wiring a gauge to the stock sensors. Leave them alone and just get the Innovate kit and keep it stand alone.
