Don't be fooled by the competition telling you that "Denso", "Bosch", etc., are OEM replacement sensors. Read up on the subject, and you'll quickly find that the sensor of choice is the NTK units---the same ones that Mitsubishi installs in the cars at the factory.

On top of all this, their pricing isn't that great for the knock-off brands (and in many cases more), making this a no-brainer. That is--unless you're the type that likes to spend more money on inferior parts.

Pricing for the DSMs is as follows:

1G Turbo Cars: $63.00

2G FWD Cars: Front Sensor: $97.49
Rear Sensor: $92.40

2G AWD Cars: Front Sensor: $97.49
Rear Sensor: $92.40

These are for REAL OEM NTK sensors, not knock-off "OEM-Type" sensors.

Josh, Care to share some links. I've done a bit of reading on this in the past and the impression I got was the while the NTK sensors are very good the Denso sensors are also very good.

Ya I thought Denso was the factory shizzle... :confused:

No, the factory units are the NTK units.

I've had at least 4 customers in the last 6 months that have had Denso units that they actually paid more for, die prematurely.

As far as links, there's plenty of discussion out there. Some from boards which I will not link to (as part of their rules).

End result though: why would one pay more for less, or even if we put all arguements aside--similar?
