I use the AEM gauge. The AutoMeter setup probably works just fine also.

i run the lm-1 on the street. It uses a bosch sensor thats for a 1.8T VW that can be had at any parts store, plus the boschs come with a 1 year warrant so just get a new one if it ever goes up or replace it every year. the only problem i have had when it eats a o2 sensor is a super rich condition in the 9.0afr range or running a lot of race gas which if you are goin to run race gas all the time get the ngk wideband...all the honda guys that run c16 all the time run them. Or if you already have the lm-1 get the ngk sensor for it. just my 2 cents

I run an autometer wideband.. I think its a good tool to have for tuning and no I dont have a laptop! I normally run my engine at 1100 but was playing around here with my SV1

I put an innovate lc-1 on my car with an analog gauge. Nice tuning toy on the street but no datalogging capability unless I hook it up to my efi controller and datalog with that.

I've had the LM-1 with the RPM kit for a couple of years now. Very happy with the results. It will teach you an amazing amount about your carb. I had thought that I knew a little bit about carbs, until I spent a little time tuning with the LM-1. I really didn't know squat. If you choose to take the time and experiment, then the wide band O2s will teach you a lot about the circuits in your carb.

But I think it will take a while to get the hang of tuning with it. And if you are serious about tuning, then I think you will need logging capability. The A/F is moving around all the time and quickly at that. The data logging allows you to analyze graphs rather than trying to watch the guage while driving.

I have had lc1 and aem. innovate products are crap. very very ground sensitive. they make you jump through hoops to make the thing work. aem is perfect. 2 wire hookup. pwr and grd. thats it. i had my aem on my turbo car on ethanol that lives or dies by the wideband (11.0Cr and 20psi)and i wouldnt trust anything else but aem.

I plan on buying two of these before Spring time. I don't need the data logging and I just want one in each exhaust pipe for tuning.

Been using an AEM for the last 4+ years on my GTX and has worked like a charm with no issues. Super easy to use and very accurate.
