Sorry not got an innovate but a VEMS unit with EGT's in built excellent tool for mapping & referencing. Utterly important imho for any seriously tuned car.

I use the Innovate LC1 with an XD type gauge(digital programmable type).The Innovate kit is very good indeed imho.It has proven completely reliable through much use over the last couple of years.I prefer a digital readout gauge for its easy to read clarity when in use,the varying colour led's around the gauge can be altered to any colour you like,individualy,this also helps a lot i find,as i programmed mine to be blue when rich,graduating to green at lambda 1,and then red when lean.You catch this changing in your eyesight very easily whilst driving.
Mail me if you need more infosmile
forgot to add that i bought mine from Graham Goode Motorsport,for a very fair price.

Hi,

I've got the LM1 kit with the RPM addition including exhaust clamp. Its an excellent diagnostic tool as well as being invaluable when setting engines up. With the data logging software I can draw AFR against RPM graphs, this is the plot you'll get on a dyno along with the normal BHP graph.

The rpm kit allows you to log up to 5 other sensors, I'm making a box up to log throttle position and boost pressure plus the output from my G meter.

Rich.

I'm a little bit biassed, but I do prefer the VEMS wideband.

this may be unwelcome but I have used 3 LC1s and they have all packed in within weeks, all on different cars. Tech Edge WB02 is the one to go for. Costs twice as much but it works and will continue to work. The early LC1 had a problem with its anolog output being very sensitive and burning out given half an excuse. They say they fixed it on the later ones but the last 2 I tried were later ones and just as crap. Save your money.

They also drift like crazy and you cannot trust what they tell you.
