Autronic pricing
"The m4 ecu can be had for about 1700.00us
Unlocking the lambda option is about 650.00us
Unlocking the advanced functions is about 350.00us
plus a harness at about 350.00us
Prices sourced from the motec us catalog found here..."
Plus, 120.00 data cable, and 150.00 for each O2 sensor.
The M4,M48,SMC,SM2 don't have EVO8 stepper support.
The EVO8 boards have a feature that will allow you to calibrate and datalog with any wideband that has a 0-5v signal. You cannot Autotune, but you can log.
We cannot guarranty the accuracy of everyone's analyzer. That is why Autotune only works with our meter.
The Autotune changes your fuel map as you drive. If a poorly calibrated meter is used the results could be blamed on Autronic.
We haven't jumped on the Bosch LSU4.2 wagon yet. It is very sensitive(fragile). Even when the sensor is damaged it appears to "read" correctly.
I would like to see a lower cost analyzer as well. Autronic is working on the Subaru PNP now so the "A/F interface" is on hold.

Anyway has anyone looked into this somewhat affordable option:

No affiliation just a user that has found it to be pretty good though a smaller package would be nice. But hey it was developed to be used by a shop. Won a best award of some sort or another at SEMA.
Good response to questions at:

I think people have been using with other auto tuning stand alones - don't know about autronic but the signal can be calibrated so my money is on it working if you have the functionality enabled.

The innovative meter looks like a decient buy at that price. Even if you use it to tune black boxes, or purley for an in-car safety type meter. You know to tell if something is going wrong...
thanks for the link!
I am pretty sure the autronic ecu's require a 0-1volt square wave signal.
Steve can clear that up for sure though.
