Wideband Shootout!!

Received an email from Innovate today containing this article. I know there's always someone looking for a wideband sicne its the first recommendation when your car is ready to be tuned. I dont vouch for any product, but thought this may help you make the right decision for your application.

it's been out for a while but many contradict it, they had the testing done by their own employees and at their facility. So bias outcome is what other tuners/vendor claimed.


some1 post up I kow Scott from ttp is one of them that argue the results

Innovate conducted that test at THEIR facility using THEIR methods as reported by Mike Kojima.

How are you going to have INNOVATE TESTING THEIR COMPETITORS widebands?



Below you will find the results of an HONEST test conducted by a REAL MAGAZINE, and not tested by INNOVATE.

I was in the same position as you a month ago. I ended up getting a Zeitronix Zt-2 from TTP, and i couldnt be more satisfied with it. Zeitronix and TTP rock!

It could not read rich enough to display the AFR. The AFR range display was insufficient.

AEM is not effective to tune your car with. If you like blinkity gauges that serve little real tuning purpose, that is the way to go.
