ebay im paying around $98 for innovate sensors (innovate lm1 and lc1)

even for the new MOtec setup on my dyno my sensors are $110

i was using INNOVATE but it is unreliable and slow, as most are well aware.

All Genuine Bosch in Bosch boxes.

When you say slow Trent, what do you mean?

I haven't had any issue with my LC1 mounted in the dump, perhaps its the lack of soot with the e85? You do give yours a hard time too. :banana:

I remember there was review in some magazine they tested a bunch of simple Wide band O2s and the Innovate had the fastest response time when against Techedge, AEM, and a few other brands.

not sure how that happens, the innovate has been pretty poor in other comparison's... especially in the trade. Warranty issues since they sold out to another company have been through the roof.

i had to get a new lc-1 under warranty and its died again now, they replaced it straight away the first time so there was no doubt it was a manafacturer fault.

anyway i purchased myne through this guy, was very helpful and returned it for me to get fixed under warranty.

as attached.. each to their own.. I just wend Innovate LC-1 because of it's dual output and because it is recommended on many forums

yeah its an 07 test, i used to swear by their gear used to use LC1's by the truck load in car installs (permanent). I even reckon if you search innovate it will come up with lots of praise from myself, but over the past 2 years it has become a joke.

DOA's and lc1's which wont connect etc.... even my dyno ran a few lc1's for v6 and v8 cars etc but the constant issues drove me nuts, i splashed on the MOTEC gear and it is chalk and cheese, never have i made a wiser choice the things it picks up over the LC1 is phenomenal.

I still have 2 LC1's which are backups and a Trust LM-1 (version one in black) the lm1 is 4-6 years old from memory and is a sweet unit just clunky and proof they used to make good gear as it never plays up.

BTW this guys is the shit for all tuner tools, great guy. Tell him we sent you.

Half the price of local gear.

i recently bought a innovate LC 1 and XD16 gauge.

had some trouble getting it to work, it was my battery causing this,

after a new battery it was much better,

ive had a few issues with it getting stuck on the heat up phase,

ive had to remove it and recalibrate it 3 times in 3 weeks,

the LOGWORKS program that comes with it wont load has a missing mts error, said to reinstall it so i did, still wont work still has mts error.

i have connected the anologue outputs into my datalogit for a wideband reading on my laptop while tuning. i have tried alot of different configurations to get it reading the same as the XD16 gauge(digital) i can get it even at idle but when under load the guage reads richer than the datalogit,

other than that the innovate is good :P

makes me worry that the readings im getting are actually correct,

i had similar problems, tried shitloads of different earths, read that you have to wire the ground to an2 and set it to delta an1-2. i tried this and the readings were different, in the end i found it closest to correct when i wired it up this way but switched off the delta an1-2. also had to use a seperate ground for a couple of wires i think, cant really remember. fkn weird shit

yeh i tried the delta an1 - an2, doesnt seem to work for me, so i just use an1 and have tried to calibrate it to read the same as the gauge, but under WOT it doesnt seem to be the same,

i have tried different earths but the instructions and their website say u must try to connect all earths to one lug, even the signal and heater grounds together.

i have it working now with the gauge but every now and then it freaks out and i have to jack the car up take the 02 sensor out and do a free air calibration then refit.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
