The TE unit does not work with all sensors such as NTK, etc..., but only with the Bosch LSU4. Also, the TE unit is not able to self-calibrate like the LM-1 unit can.
In addition, the TE DIY is $251 (not $150) with the display, O2 sensor from VW, connector, and WB unit with cable. Then you have to solder it together. There's a significant chance for problems if you're not experienced at this. Then you have to calibrate it.
There's just too much room for error in my opinion, and it's a long wait to receive the unit from Australia. The TE ready-built unit would be much better then the TE DIY unit (for the unexperienced) , but then the cost is high too.
For $349 shipped, the LM-1 is a self-calibrating, complete system that is fully built in the factory. Is is complatible with ANY wideband sensor. Also, the LM-1 was actually compared side by side with the Horiba WB system (which costs a few thousand dollars), and it was absolutely DEAD ON accurate with it.
