    I'm in the market to replace my junk LC-1. After searching in my price range I'm trying to decide which wideband setup to go with. There seem to be quite a few good options, but all the reviews I read are of products that are several years old. I'm looking for something accurate, easy to use, has a nice gauge, and under $250.

    Right now I'm between the zeitronix zt-3 and plx dm-6. The lc-2 is 3rd.

    Any others that are proven that I should look at? The tuners I've talked to said stay away from aem, glowshift, and the other real cheap ones.

    I have the PLX wideband AFR module with their DM-6 gauge and love it. It was super easy to install. The gauge is nice as well. The reason I went with it was because if I add an EGT sensor in the future I can just get the module and sensor from PLX and daisy chain the two modules together and the DM-6 will display both gauges. This eliminates having to install another gauge somewhere. Real convenient IMO.

    I do like that feature with the plx. And it tells you the life of the sensor. I've been told the zeitronix is possibly more accurate, but the multi gauge model is out of my budget. It's just a no fluff wideband.

    I bought a Depo Racing digital wideband. It was highly recommended and uses the newer bosch 4.9 sensor, which is more accurate and lasts longer. It's easy to read in the sun and the install was clean and easy with plug and play connectors. It self calibrates every use.

    It looks like a good O2 sensor used in that Depo. I see it can output analog too. Did they give you any technical specs on this gauge? I can't really find any info on it.

    It came with a little booklet, but I think I threw it away. There isn't much info on it besides what's on their website, but I talked to several guys at the local drag strip that use depo racing and said they are good stuff.

    Innovate products are tried and true. I've used them, and seen them used to tune many, many 500-1000hp performance vehicles.
