I've never heard anything wrong with the innovate stuff, little tricky to set up though. I have a AEM uego and I've never had a single problem with it also.

I've always used zeitronix stuff, and had great results. Some people talk shit on his stuff, but I've never had any issues and I pretty rely on it solely for tuning.

I use NGK in my talon -> http://www.extremepsi.com/store/product ... 089&page=1, Find it great, I bought the AEM for the Colt, just because it mounted in my pillar gauge pod :)

Option number 4 is what I use: PLX. Not a problem ever and inexpensive.

I have 2 LC-1, one new one using an old sensor is giving me a code 8. The old sensor worked fine last year. These are both installed in the O2 housings. LC-1's are programmable with a linear output. They are a good buy.

Had a zeitronix, it never gave me a problem for 4 years. It was installed in the down pipe. These too are programmable with a linear output. They have a nice display but it gets pricey.

You need to decide what your needs are. AEM UEGO is not programmable with a linear output and mostly only works with the AEM standalone. What ECU are you going to use?

Same with me. Mine was actually installed in the stock location, probably had it on there for over 4-5 years, maybe longer, and I ran leaded gas in the car for over a year straight--the sensor is still working fine after all of that.

+1 for zeitronix. And the plus side is that you can get replacement sensors at autozone for ~$50 if it dies. It logs right into dsmLINK and reads spot on w/ the gauge (a problem for many other brands) Couple it w/ their stand alone multi gauge & MAP sensor and you have a total package that is easily logable.

The PLX also uses that $50 Bosch sensor that can be bought at every parts store.

I think pretty much every wideband setup on that planet uses that bosch sensor, except for maybe the NGK one, but NGK just re-boxes the bosch sensor and sells it as their own.

I suspected other brands would use that sensor, but I didn't wanna open my mouth and insert my foot by claiming my suspicion as fact. I'll let you eat some foot all day though Tony...

ALRIGHT so thanks for all the input guys. i guess there really is no difference just preference and maybe a nice option or two... so i didnt like how the inovate looked because it was so much different than my guages. and the zeitronix was a little to expensive for right now. so i bought an AEM piece and it should be here in like 1-2 weeks :cry: damn amazon

I use the zeitronix as well. Since I use megashart, I don't need the screen so that saves a little $.
