How is the heater control of the new innovates? Is it now on par with AEM?

The only frustrating thing I have with the AEM units is that you need to wire in your own serial out (not a difficult thing to do) but it would be nice if they had a snap on clip like the innovates do.

Nah, they definitely have their own patent/tech. But, it doesn't seem to match up with those numbers. Unless they have something completely new. It just seems like announcing it now, before it is available, is only going to depress current sales. Even worse, if it turns out to be vaporware. I'd hop...

"The Innovate "Direct Digital" technology can make a comlpete lambda reading in one cycle. With a typical pump frequency of 300Hz, the Innovate wideband can produce a valid reading in less than 4ms." Sounds pretty specific. Yeah sounds very interesting...will need to see how it ...

They specifically mentioned increasing the sensor frequency to 300Hz ( from their current ~20Hz ). Even the old, faster LC-1 was only around 150Hz. So, this would be a huge upgrade. ... and resolving an actual measurement in under 4ms. At least that's what was in their handout flyer. Which... BTW s...

I think the innovate is just analogue output frequency not the speed of the sensor. I will be replacing my MTX-L soon, but I'm not sure what I want to go with. The BM AFR500 v2 seems to be really good and is used by one of the bigger tuning shops down here (with the NTK sensor) as being the most acc...

Just saw this video come up on facebook:

Innovate announcing the MTX-L+
Apparently has better heater control and analogue output speed...wonder how it'll stack up against the competition.

That's not good. Don't want to buy any product from anyone that is not honest in their business dealings.

I'm actually curious on the data of the LSU 4.9 and LSU 4.9 ADV is the ADV (non pre-turbo) a more robust sensor? I tried googling but the only info I could find was the ecotrons alm lsu adv wideband O2. Anyone have any experience with the ecotrons alm lsu advanced box? See link for info: http://www....

Ummm.. That was pretty much all the testing that I was planing to do. There is a bunch of other stuff that can be tested. Like... Does it do the required low-voltage water evaporation pre-heat phase before warm-up? Checking the dynamic response of the heater/temp control. What happens if you have i...

Of course, just sitting on the bench, it will find an equilibrium point and stay there; even at slower control rates. Since The MTX-L uses the same measurement cycle to measure the sensor temperature, they are only getting 18 to 40 temperature samples per second. Much less than the required rate. T...
