the innotave does look good but reading peoples opinions on other forums alot of them would never buy an innotive again, and would opt for aem, but the aem has a crap sensor and good guage/ controller, and the one most people are steering towards is the NGK AFX with the ntk sensor, but these are people's opinions and aren't being tested against one another like in the afm shootout although that test was done 4 years ago, so the products features and quality may have changed by now

i got my first wideband not long after this article came out, i didn't know much about what was good and what wasn't, i did a little bit of research and found the innovate had good reviews and also my mate had one in his race car and he never had a bad word to say about it, so thats the main reason i went for it, but i must say that 3.5+ years down the track and i haven't had an issue with it or my new one ....

the numbers in that article make me feel better about what i got i must say!

aem seem to have a good name so i might get one of those, but innovate have good reports on some sites and bad on others, but like you said both our one's have been good,
so i think its out of them 2, innovate or aem, but i have to buy my comms board and nvram first.....

What initially drew me to innovate products was logworks, was way better than what the others had on offer at the time. Its still very good, although the company seems to have gone off the boil compared to the LM1 days. If your just connecting it to an 808 then cant really go too wrong.

Am also looking at getting another MTX-L, might be able to negotiate a better price (like the groupbuy holden202 organised awhile back) if others are also chasing one?

Got a few toys that need widebands :)

Will contact the company we got the last lot of MTX-Ls from and see what can be done.

Was somewhere around 200 plus postage, forget the exact price now. They were from Kade Speed and Marine which are showing them as $199 at the moment, have emailed them to see if there is a price break on multiple items.

Have had a reply from Kade Speed and Marine, there would need to be 5+ in the order to get free freight (and thats to one location), price is as per the website at $199.
