Looking to get Wideband

[N0DIH]

What are most people's opinions of the WB solutions out there?

Good?
Bad?
Ugly?
What to look for?
What to avoid?
Cost?

Thanks!

I have an Innovate LC1 because its cheap and so far its been great. Only had it installed since early March though, time will tell how it holds up.

I have heard recently about some accuracy issues with the LC1/LM1, but how does one really know how accurate one is?

Everybody will probably give you an opinion that will mirrow their current choices.

Innovate is popular. With EFILive's V2 I really like the serial connection. You can easily program in stoich.

I went about 20k on my last O2 sensor. The new one reads the same as the old one..so it held up pretty good.

So, instead of sounding too much like a commercial..with a serial connection it does not get any better..For $300-400 I am sure you are getting a pretty accurate reading. If I had a shop, I might put a whole lot more money into it.

Bottom line..I can not imagine tuning without it..

Good luck..

I doubt there is much difference in accuracy between the toy WBO2's that use the Bosch LSU-4.2
The people that claim brand x is better than brand y don't offer any proof.


Ease of use, proprietary software, reliability, free air calibration, serial connection, Bosch or NGK sensors, price ect. these are things to consider.
