fast4popper Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Hey! I'm pretty dead set on the innovate mtx-L widebands... 2 quesions, anyone use these? And have pics of them installed? And is there any downfall to running dual widebands, one in each bank? Thanks guys!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chpspecial Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 I'm a fan of innovate. They are the newer version of the lc1 with a dedicated gauge vs the multi-use xd16. People don't like the fact that innovate requires a free air calibration periodically. But it just takes a few seconds to do. The only down side is that you will need to mount two gauges not one, and hence more info to monitor once you are using the happy pedal. As for tuning, we don't have individual bank control so it makes running dual gauges a moot point, unless used for "show".

fast4popper Posted April 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 But I can monitor if there is a problem left to right, right? Helps pin point if there's something going on. Hmmm. Ok. I understand what you're saying Thanks for the input! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fast4popper Posted April 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 LOL, an 11 second "show" truck! I was planning on doing duals, as I had left bank problems before, and want to make sure to keep an eye on this if needed. I just wanted input on what people thought. Thanks guys!!

2003_SuperSport Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 I am using a NGK AFX for scan purposes... The display is kinda lame but for accuracy you can't beat it if you want to dial a tune in perfect... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand what you're saying Thanks for the input! Yes you will be able to monitor both banks individually. If you wanted you can run one per cylinder. Many dragsters are tuned this way via EGT probes. Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fast4popper Posted April 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 8 widebands would be badass! Can you imagine the log and tuning capabilities if you had the right engine management available! Dayum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chpspecial Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Electromotive tec3 can handle it. You can tune up to 12 individual injectors with it. Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krambo Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 BigStuff3 is the cat's ass for individual cylinder tuning. "Sequential fuel control for up to 16 cylinders Individual cylinder fuel and spark control Smart and dumb Coil-on-Plug capable Injector phasing, at the start and end of injection events Configurable Load & RPM axes" As for running dual widebands...go for it.

Cramer Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 I run the MTX-L on mine now. My sensor on my LC-1 was acting up so I went to the MTX-L. Only thing I don't like is that the gauge only comes in amber for the digital read out. Easy as hell to set-up. Run two. I will be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
