QUOTE(infraredcalvin @ Dec 28 2011, 07:03 PM)  You really want a system that datalogs if you want to fine tune. The gauge is really only good for monitoring and rough adjustments (primarily at idle). Innovate has a handheld unit (lm2). That has a quick mount accessory , a holder that holds the sensor just inside the exhaust tip, as long as your pipe is not to big you can get an adequate reading. On my 930 the sensor is mounted just after the turbo, right before the muffler. I get great readings frome there. |

The MTX-L gauge has the capability to output a data log to a laptop. That was a selling point for this model so that I could have a permanent gauge plus the ability to log data for tuning.

Sean, thats what i thought, i says in the manual that it heats up when connected, takes about 60 seconds to heat up, and that un un-powered sensor will be damaged-it needs to be powered up if installed when the car is running. so here are a couple pictures of the triad exhaust (this is 2.0 motor but since i had 1.8 SSHE's i got a 1.8 triad , at anyrate you can see the main collector is center and lower, then at the center it goes up then separates right and left. i was thinking that a good location for the sensor would be the back center of the lower collector ? what do you guys think? p.s. the mess on the back of my muffler i partially road crap and ever since i changed my transmission fluid - it was old and low, ive been leeking and i'm not sure where from, but its gotten on the muffler ( if it isnt one thing its another!!!) phil QUOTE(sean_v8_914 @ Dec 29 2011, 10:24 AM) very nice. its like it has a built in LC-1 • The only 100% digital wideband air/fuel ratio technology! • Water Resistant 52mm (2 1/16”) round dash-mountable casing is perfect for automotive, powersports, marine, and demanding racing applications • Built-in Direct Digital™ Wideband Controller reduces wiring and simplifies installation (No LC-1 required) • Wideband O2 Sensor is compatible with all fuel types (Leaded, Unleaded, Diesel, Methanol, E85, etc) • Ability to calibrate O2 sensor for increased accuracy • (2) 0-5v fully programmable linear analog outputs for use with engine management systems “closed-loop” and external dataloggers • Interchangeable faceplates and bezels: Black and silver bezel, black and white faceplates included • Large digital readout and programmable “Digital Needle” provides the functionality of a needle style gauge with the pinpoint accuracy of a digital display • Datalog using LogWorks on your PC • Serial IN and OUT ports allows for easy Attached image(s)

Sorry for the hijack, but how is this one different than the K&N A/F meter?
