I've got a PLX Devices M-300.

Nice simple unit; it comes with a display and a bosch sensor. Good price too, $320 shipped.

The LM-1 is very good IMHO... It is the one I have and it has lots of cool features.

I was lookin at the PLX ones at first cause I wanted a display, but what I didnt realise about the LM-1 is that you could use the included output signals and send it to a turbo timer as an O2 display! I'm definetly gonna do the LM-1... it's got everything, and a good price too.

I have the LM-1 and have used it once to play with my emanage. It worked great.

I havn't tried their software or the extra programmable analog outputs yet.

I've got the techedge WBo2... It is a great unit and offers more flexibility and such than any of the others available from what I can tell... the new version of it especially (the 2B0) I have the 2A0 and it is a great unit... The 2A0 has 3 user voltage inputs and 3 thermocouple inputs (IE EGT, water & oil temps) as well as an rpm input.

Good product and the price is right! Especially cheap if you know how to solder and buy the kit... or you can pay a little more and get a prebuilt unit.

No, I just use it to look cool.

On a more serious note, isn't that the purpose of the wideband?

I'll be using that in a couple of weeks to tune my custom turbo kit.

uh... right now I don't have any tuneability... in the future I hope to go EMS.

I use it to let me know if something is wrong mainly... like the other day I had a small leak in my recirc tube and I noticed my A/F's were reading leaner so I inspected everything and found the leak! ..

I have mine permanently installed in the car.

I was lazy so I bought it prebuilt... but I know several guys who bought the kit and built theirs and they work just fine. It isn't very hard to do, you get a printed circuit board, all the components, and etc. It is just a bit time consuming. Even an amateur at electronics should be able to assemble it without any problems, although it may take you 6-8 hours of work.

LM1...best investment I've ever made, bar none. No more damn dyno sessions. Now I just need a set of rollers for the garage.
