Wideband opinions

I am about to buy a wideband and would like some differant opinions on differant kits that you are using and what the advantages and disadvantages are. I have a dynotune wet kit on my 95 TA and think it is time for a wideband.

I just got the Innovate LC1 myself, and I like it. Fairly easy to wire up and has worked great so far. I just wish it had seperate grounds for each analog output, that would make wiring up the narrow band simulator easier.

I've got a LM-1 and have been happy with it. I do like the fact that you can do data logging on up to 5 additional inputs and have them show up on the same screen as the AFR when you view the log.

I hope Autometer puts out good widebands! I just bought an Ultra-Lite wideband from them.

My friend has one that works well. Just hook up 2 wires and go, easier than the LC-1.

I have the LC-1, works pretty good, but I've been through a few sensors. I'm not sure how many of them were actually bad. A while back I was convinced I needed a new one, did the recalibration, and it works perfect ever since. I now run it with the Dynotune lean shut-down switch.

The Innovate is the top rated though we sell PLX also and have had good luck with them also.

Anybody have experience with the FAST unit with the data loger? I found 1 pretty cheap and looks very simple to install. Any opinions?

got the lm1 1.5 years ago and works fine. i just hate that big box and the screen is small. the screen is good to have to let you know of misfires. i have hpt also so i don't need to keep an eye on the lm1's screen for a/f. i look at my laptop.

if i were in the market, i'd get the lc1 and dynotunes a/f safety switch to use as a digital a/f guage and for the nitrous safety option too. just not too fond of the red readout.

I would think more of these company's would make them with two sensors to read both banks

i have the dynojet wideband commander and loving it so far. It will take car of lots of different parameters, and record 45 minutes worth of runs!

I don't have one personally, but I have a friend that is running one on his Z. It is the dual sensor with logger. I've seen enough to know it's the one I'll be getting. Pretty nice unit. Simple install. Easy to read.
