Accuracy of OBD2 o2 sensor

Two questions, Anybody have opinions of the accuracy of the voltage or rich/lean reading off the stock o2 sensor in conjunction with the OBD2 adapter and software?

Second, do you know if our car supports the TRICAN adapter?

If you are trying to get a reading off the existing O2 sensor, I would suggest adding another bung and adding a new Bosch unit in there to read off of. Are you tring to get A/F readings?

I don't know the answer for the 2nd question...

FYI: The OEM O2 sensor is narrowband and is worthless for tuning purposes.

Yes on the air/fuel and sounds like I have to add another sensor which is a wideband. Thanks Qwill and steve, will look at bosch now.
