Default best wideband?

Well I think its about time to get a new wideband because I dont think mine is very accurate. What is the best bang for the buck. I would really like to get a aeroforce or plx and add there wideband kit to it. Is one better than the other. I was looking at the aem on ebay for about $170, but the one I have now was more than that and its not the best gauge in the world .... Thanks Nick

The LC1 wideband only is about $180. You don't get the gauge, but you can still log AFR in the scanner when you're making tune changes, which is where it matters most.

If you get the LC1 it should be able to be used with the aeroforce gauge.

I have the innovative lc-1 with a dynotune digital gauge and it reads exactly what the hptuners reads opposed to the aeroforce being all over the place.

I have innovate's new mtx-l wideband. It's completely digital and I personally think that it looks better than the lc1. I haven't got around to hooking it up to efi live yet so I can't comment on if it is as simple to do as the lc1.

Does the LC-1 still require you to calibrate the sensor?
That's why i quit using them, as much as we use them, it just became a pita to calibrate it all the time.

Currently we use the PLX with no issues, I use the M300 unit for tuning.
