  • Wide Band!!!!!!!!!!

    Ok 2 ?s




    Good price quality @ deal?

    I have never used or seen one of these ones before so, can the controller be unplugged and installed on another vehicle easily if they have a WB already, for tuning purpose?


    Thanx.

    I know the Innovative LC1 is a very popular unit, and there are several people on here that currently own one. As far as unplugging the controller, I have no idea.

      As long as you have two of the same o2 sensors then yes the controller can be used on multiple cars. Typically these are just Bosch LSU 4.2 type wideband O2 sensor regardless of the controller included.

      One thing to remember is with this kit I think you need to calibrate it every time you switch the sensor thats connected to it.

      My PLX wideband I do not need to calibrate ever.

        That's a pretty good deal. But I think your looking for something like an old LM-1 or there latest LM-2. Both are hand held units made to be switched between cars. The LC-1 is more of a permanent install deal.

          The manual recommends re-calibrating (heater warm-up time and free-air) the controller everytime it's connected to a different sensor. Since you have to remove the O2 sensor from the exhaust for free-air anyways, you might as well just save time and use 1 sensor for both cars and plug the bung where it's isn't being used.

            Thinking that since they need to be recalibrated when moving from car to car, I will just worry about my car, this kit or similar, then get the PLX after to go from vehicle to vehicle.

              You don't have to remove the sensor to do free air calibration, just make sure the car hasn't been started for at least 6hrs.

              I had the LC1 (might still have it actually) and wasn't happy with the performance of the controller, so I made my own...

                AEM has not done me wrong. I have 3 units. No cal needed ever and you can swap the setup easily. If you have a spare harness it is even easier to use in multiple vehicles.

                  I've been running the JAW for 2+ years now without much trouble, it is cheap if you build it yourself and works well, but it is pretty much entirely DIY.

                  Firmware can be buggy when it first comes out though.
