Best Innovate LC1 Wideband Kit?

In short, I have the JnR ECU and need more tuning support. Ive read that the Innovate brand widebands are the best. In your opinions, what's the best as far as accuracy and function? Innovate Motorsports DB Blue LC1 Wideband Air Fuel Complete Kit 3795 or Innovate G3 Wideband Gauge Kit w/ LC-1, 3802 G3 Wideband Gauge Kit w/ LC-1, 3802?

Also want your opinion on the one that will compliment base TL blue tach lighting, not that important.

I have the digital blue innovative AFR and like it a lot. The blue of the display matches the gauges well and the o2 sensor it uses is pretty cheap and very available. I have replaced the sensor once in 3+ yrs of running pretty rich.

Thanks for the inputs! I got another advise from an outside source to go with AEM UEGO Kit, because it's simple and easy to install.

One huge advantage of the Innovate controller is the ability to free air calibrate. Not sure exactly which do and do not have this feature.

That being said, I have the AEM unit and haven't had a problem. But if I were to do it again, I would go with IM.

Cool! I already pulled the trigger on the AEM. Since you haven't had any problems, that's good enough for me!

On another note; I'm looking for a tasteful gauge pod. I'm not a big fan of this in my TL, but the gauge is a must right now. Does anyone think the steering column for the 03-06 Lancer EVO 8/9 this will work in the 3G TL? It looks pretty similar, and it's in a great spot to me.

The problem with the aem wideband is the lack of free air calibration. Aem says the sensor self calibrates but it's b.s.

NGK's are great but they are on the high price side and was suppose to be the best that regards to accuracy.

Ive been trying to fab gauges in the cluster for some time now. failed attempt one and have yet to get in another cluster to try again. i bought the type s on but didn't realize it wouldn't work for me. wouldn't you need 2 pods? one for boost and one for af? i guess the only way to see is to buy and test fit it. if they dont charge a restocking fee, it may be worth trying and just shipping it back. i too have the AEM, and have no complaints.
