Hi, ive had an ongoing KA24E-t project for a couple years now and since i finished the engine build and the car runs but it needs a tune. Its been sitting for about a year now because ive lost my job, anyways i now can afford about 200 dollars shipped for a wideband..

I'm currently looking at two specific models, the innovate MTX-L and the AEM UEGO.

Innovate Digital Wideband MTX-L Air/Fuel Gauge Kit All-in-one w/O2 Sensor 3844 | eBay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/290685886067?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_2347wt_1044)

AEM 30-4100 DIGITAL WIDEBAND UEGO CONTROLLER AIR FUEL RATIO - FULL WARRANTY | eBay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/AEM-30-4100-DIGITAL-WIDEBAND-UEGO-CONTROLLER-AIR-FUEL-RATIO-FULL-WARRANTY-/330682646907?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item4cfe38c17b&vxp=mtr#ht_1092wt_813)

From looking at both these widebands and looking at reviews both seem to have a good reputation.. How ever ive noticed from reviews of the AEM that it does not include date log equipment where as the Innovate does. I do have an SAFC II i installed and i figured i would be able to make adjustments accordingly to the wideband so i suppose i wouldnt need the date logging connectors and software but i feel its nice that innovate includes this.

This is where im having trouble, i know AEM is a great company and makes some great electronics. But i feel that since its doesn't include the data logging you could say its not " user friendly " as the Innovate. Is there any insight some of you can give me that can sort of lead me in the right direction ?

Thanks alot for taking time to read this.

*EDIT* Also for mounting the O2 bung, where exactly is the best place ? under the car ?? or on the down pipe ? I do not have any cat on the pipe its straight..

i bought a plx, and its awesome so far. Super easy to install, instructions are easy to follow, tells you exactly where to put everything, and can be daisy chained together (read the plx website)
