Does anyone know if the AEM wideband is good enough or is the Innovative LM-1 the way to go? All I need is a good AFR montitoring device that does not jump back and forth and is pretty accurate. Any input is greatly appreciated.

I have an AEM wideband and I love it... it seems pretty accurate, most gauges say they should be within 0.1 AFR.. unless you buy a narrowband gauge you should be fine with any.

If you have the money, I prefer getting the innovative LM-1 because it can read Lambda as well as AFR. Lambda is good if you want to get into methanol/water injection. Lambda doesn't care if you use water, meth, coca cola, sprite...it will have the same stoich value.

I just installed mine, and it has all that jazz as well. There is a sponsor named Marty T that sells them for 250$ shipped.

Zeitronix if you have a laptop lying around. Its got 10 times the sampling rate that the LM1 has and you can get the base unit thats got data loging for about 300 bucks. I love it, made tuning my brothers car with a SAFC so easy.

The downside with the base unit is that it has no flashy gages or anything, you have to view it through a laptop. Of course you can pay a little more and get the gage or the LCD readout.

You can also get a 60 dollar peripheral that lets you set audible and visual alarms, and you can run a solenoid to cut your engine. Like, at 10 pounds of boost if my AFR goes above 12, you will get an alarm.

This is off-topic, but does anyone own a PLX M300?

I'm not sure which wires I'm suppose to place my resistors on and which 02 signal (front or rear) am I suppose to splice into.

I have a 02 bung on my first DP (JGS) and I was wondering should I use that 02 bung or make a new one on my other DP? I have a OBDII so I have two 02 sensor's, what am I suppose to do with the one that was on the cat?

HELP anyone!?
