Opinions/experience with these widebands wanted!
Thursday, October 27, 2005 10:21 AM
Well I'm torn between two wideband set-ups.

Innovative LM-1 kit and XD-1 Gauge.....about $580
OR

PLX R-500...about $550


I know some of you guys have the LM-1 so I was looking for reviews and how good your experience has been with it.......same thing for the PLX R-500

Link to PLX R-500 kit:

Those are the best widebands on the market for the money. The Bosch 5-wire sensors they use don't really have a long life so to speak, and I wouldn't worry about buying replacement sensors from Innovative. You can get them from any Volvo dealership for like $30

well i have the PLX M-300 which works great but is just a basic WB with readout only, but i like it and have heard lots of good things about the R-500, which if i wanted all the features would be the way i would go.

Good luck
