I have an LM-1 and a Wideband commander. Neither have had any problems. Someday I may install them both in the same pipe for my own shootout.

I am using the Autometer Wide Band AFR Gauge and really like it. I had to set up a user defined PID for HP Tuner Logging but other then that it was easy. I can log with HP and watch the gauge. I put the Wide Band Sensor 6" after the Cat on Bank 1 and it reads real stable, not over sensitive.

I thought putting the sensor after the cat will cause the AFR to be off, wouldn't the AFR read leaner??? I may be wrong but that is what I remember reading...

I was told to do this because the Wide Band Sensor doesnt like Heat or Pressure. It actually reads great. If it is a little lean then I will always be safe. I tune by using the stock sensor and the wide band readings logged side by side.

I liked my LC1 and it worked fine but I have a LM1 now for the easy portability.
