Default wideband o2 sensor

I looking into DIY tuning and am picking up an egt gauge, knock gauge, wideband o2 sensor, and tactrix cable. My question is with the wideband o2 sensor. I found one that just has the sensor and another with the sensor and lambda cable, could i just use the o2 sensor by itself? Also will i still need my CEL fix for the new o2 sensor or can i shut off the CEL when i tune it?

No, you'll need the controller, which, in the LC-1 you're looking at, is integrated with the cable.

No. The controller is what interprets the data from the WBO2 sensor.
I have the Zeitronix (www.zeitronix.com) wideband setup. It cost me something like $270 I think; one of the cheapest/best on the market.
It features a Bosch sensor (cheap if you ever need to replace), it's own logging program that logs 60+ samples per second, and the controller is VERY small so it can easily be installed just about anywhere without being seen.
