Lightbulb Anyone have Innovate LC1 Wideband?

Anyone have the Innovate LC1 Wideband? Bought this with the DB Blue gauge, looking for some installation pointers... Seems simple enough, just wondering on the wires you tapped into, placement of the bung etc...

Thanks

bung should go before the primary to get an accurate AFR reading.

Thanks bro... Whats the easiest way/access to the cabin via the firewall to take wires inside for the gauge? where to mount gauge where it won't look tacky or too ricer-ish.

few options, but you can route through a preset area behind the glove compartment. You should see it if you remove the cabin filter.

I mounted the guage for mine in the ashtray area out of site, and pipe the results to my dashdyno as well for logging.

Still can't figure out where to mount gauge

While speaking of gauges... When driving, when doing wot... Afr's should never drop ##? And exceed ##?

14.7 is stoich and you should be at that or maybe a little lower (richer) to be safe. If you go higher than 14.7 you start leaning out the motor and that is not good for the health of your motor.

Oops, I didn't read the wot in the original post. 14.7 is right in the middle of rich or lean. At idle you want to be around 14.7, but at WOT, you shoot for 12-12.5 so you have enough fuel at the top end. If you lean out you can put a hole in a piston. I think 11.5 might be a little too rich and you may lose a little power. Of course, the only way to tell is when you dyno the car.
