is this a decent wide band guage?
is this a decent wide band guage for a mildly modded WS6? they say a digital
is for serious tuning.

I can observe the color's easier
yes I have the LC1 not installed yet.
I have heard these are excellent W/Bs I have sean one in a Mustang and the guage is huge.BTW saw vid impressive 1/4 mile run.
I don't really need the most accurate (and expensive) WB guage, just want a decent WB guage that will work better than that turd narrow band I had (allthought it did have a constant reading at WOT).
Guess my concern is analog or digital just how much more accurate is the digital compared to the analog?
Thanks

everything is worth it's price. if you want feedback from people that have that i cant help. but for opinion i would say everything is worth its price. if you are on a budget then yes it would be nice to get an "idea" of what afr u are running.

I don't personally have any experience with the NGK yet but I've been following a lot of threads and testing and it seems from my research to be the best "cheaper" wideband. I have had experience with the Innovate LC-1, 2 different AEM UEGO's, and an Innovate LM-1.
Of the three the most accurate and consistant was the LM-1. It is what I am replacing with the NGK. I was very very satisfied with the results from the LM-1 but it is more of a portable unit to take in and out of cars, which was good for me where I tune quite a few cars locally.
The LC-1 when you can get it working was pretty accurate using the XD-1 (now the XD-16) digital gauge but the key word there is "when". I still have my LC-1 unit and the analog outputs burned out on the unit and the controller would kill bosch sensors abnormally fast.
The AEM to me is just as bad if not worse than the LC-1. I had 2 different ones and once you dial in a tune on a car using it's feedback the next day the afr readings would be completely different by up to and often more than 1 full afr point. I compared the AEM to the LM-1 in the same exhaust pipe within 6" of one another and the AEM couldn't keep up with the LM-1 and was often way off on readings compared to the LM-1.
I've also confirmed the afr readings of my LM-1 on a few different dyno's. My only complaint with the LM-1 and to add to the LC-1 is the noisy analog outputs. It is near impossible to get the sine wave looking afr log out of the analog outputs on these 2 widebands. The LC-1 was way worse than the LM-1 with noise.
Hope some of this info can help you and others out a little bit.

I would prefer a square guage.
also would like the lights to flash from left to right horizontially.
thanks for the feedback
