how did you get on with the innovate jeff? i have got one for my car and have heard a few good and bad stories about them

[jeffw]

I don't think Innovate are any better (or worse) than any of the others. The issue stems from the fact that Wideband Lamdas are fragile sensors and need calibrating frequently....which never happens on a car. Having had my Omex setup by ATSpeed I decided to take the LC-1 off as it wasn't doing anything and was giving false readings. If you are mapping a car or using a Turbo car with adjustable boost then it makes sense but the sensors need calibrating once every few days or a week as a maximum.

i plan to do the base map with it then take the car up to atspeed once its running ok. boost will be controlled by the ecu, think i will stick a narrow band on it eventually and just use the wideband when needed

[jeffw]

I would speak to ATSpeed first, it maybe cheaper to trailer the car to them rather than going to the expense and frustration of mapping with a wideband. I doubt that fitting a narrowband will help at all.

with Jeff on this 1, i run the same wideband setup on the 7, was a pain to get a decent reading and needed calibrating weekly.. since i had it mapped at emerald i have taken the LC1 off.
