I like it, but i can't believe they sell it with the cheaper bosch sensor, instead of standard with the ntk sensor.
I understand why they do it, it get a cheaper price on the device, but it makes it hard to tell somebody that the ntk is a far better sensor than the bosch when even ntk/ngk sells the bosch sensor with thier product.

Cheaper != better but good enough is all it takes.
The "sale" price is still not that much less than
other widebands (I got my LM-1 for something
like $319, plus add-ons). It's got an analog output
so I guess it's as usable with HPTuners, EFILive
cables as any other. It looks kind of low-class
'80s-style hardware. But it's an option.

agreed cheaper is not always better, but far more people will buy a $250 wideband vs a $600-1200 one, if they are not a professional tuner.
Personally I have something similar to an afm1000 that I use, and it is a great wideband controller,but most people don't need something of this grade for home use.

This is a very nice unit already tested the system and compared it with some of the high dollar units out there plus did some dyno runs and this unit is dead ***** accurate.
Main difference between the NTK unit it’s that it would last longer under race gas conditions
