    My buddy has a PLX and likes it, thats what i plan on buying. We both had innovate LC1s prior and got rid of them. His was inaccurate i never got mine to read usable data.

        Friends don't let friends buy innovative products!

        Jim - I use a NGK AFX with the NTK sensor. I can't say how much I recommend this unit.

        Dave bought it and is very happy with it as well.

              AFX+NTK ftw. And like Jeremy said...I am very very happy with it. I can dial in my VE table in about half the time it used to take me with my AEM b/c it is so much more repeatable (and I actually trust my results now).

                      Jeremy's is mounted in front of his shifter.

                      I have an AEM permanently mounted in my a-pillar and only use the AFX for tuning

                        I guess the question is - are you going to tune with it, or do you want a display to look @?

                            Jim, the ngk box is a bit cumbersome to mount in a way that you can look at it. I never look at mine unless I'm cruising - it gets datalogged when I'm tuning.

                            You could use the 5v output to drive a digital/analog gauge. But then the price goes up.

                            I assume you are aware that you need to let the sensor warm up for 30 seconds before you start the car? That's the most annoying thing for me.

                              I use a Zeitronix ZT-2 for tuning purposes in the Bel Air, no gauge - just the laptop.

                              The IROC has an AEM UEGO setup. It's permanently installed under the center dash vents. They say it doesn't require a warmup, I don't know how much I believe that...but I only wanted it so I wouldn't run it super lean. Didn't realize the cam I have (74* overlap) would make it read lean under 2500 rpm
