14point7 wideband
Posted this on the Link forums, but figured I'd post here as well.
Anyone here used one of their setups? I am looking to replace my Prosport WB setup and have been hearing a lot of good things about these guys. Good price, top notch performance, and the owner has made some of them open source and openly discusses his devices on forums, really seems to know his stuff. I was looking at an AEM or Innovate, but have read so many negative reviews that I'm hesitant to use them now. Found these and they seem promising in every aspect.

Example of some of the positive things I've read.

Re: 14point7 wideband
not to take away from these halon, but I am absolutely in love with all my innovate mtx gauges. I have only used them for one year now, but they perform flawless and have good software, functions, and log perfectly.

Re: 14point7 wideband
Thanks for the link Brandon. The SLC PP2 / DIY2 looks a lot like the NGK display, and I've been thinking about getting a wideband for this car. I also like the programmable output so I can log the data along with everything else.

I was originally looking at the LC2 w/ DB gauge setup, however I've heard enough horror stories about Innovate in the last few years that I've decided to research deeper. I started to consider the AEM unit, but again heard plenty of horror stories there as well. That will always be the case with anything in the big picture, but again made me keep researching. Then I found these, and so far everything I see is nothing but positive, the builder himself appears to be genuine.

Cool man, I'm looking at the one called "SLC Gauge" as I just want a regular old round gauge.

Re: 14point7 wideband
Wonder how one of these would work with link? Doesn't look like it's on the list of supported ones on their site.

Re: 14point7 wideband
I was one of his beta testers and had one of them for a long time. They are nice, and work well, but they are not very durable. It only lasted about a season in the racecar before it quit working.
also had an EGT gauge which quit working as well.
