Ok what about the aem. Or that auto meter has a range under 4volts, the rtek manual says to say at or around 5v max. Does anyone think this is the best wide band for the job with a rtek 2.1 system.

Thanks man, the autometer hass a 0v-4v range so i might go with that for that reason the rtek 2.1 manual says that you have to keep the volts range at 5v or below at 500ma. So i think ill go with this one inless anyone has one of these on a rtek and has a bad thought or problems with it, they say its accurate to 0.01

[QUOTE=beefhole;10532887]try another gauge besides the innovative. I have one. NOT HAPPY. Many others feel the same. Most brands are around the same price so it won't be hard to find another option.[/QUO THANKS I THINK THE AEM LOOKS BETTER BUT THE AUTOMETER SEEMS TO FIT SPEC IN A OVOLT TO 4VOLT RANGE THAT RTEK SAYS TO STAY IN A 0 TO 5 AT 500MA ANY THOUGHTS

I don't know what others are good, as I still have the innovative (would be a pain to take it out an put another in). Poke around the single turbo section and see what the guys in there are running.

I run the innovate in my personal car without any issues. The AEM is also nice if you are looking for a gauge style, with multiple face/bezel options. The NGK is also good but a little more difficult to find a good mounting point.

I prefer the HKS twin power over the MSD as it is far smaller and easier to mount along with the fact that is amplifies leading and trailing coils.

Ok new question. Who is running a rtek 1.7 to 2.1 ems with this inovative wideband. And do you have it plugged into the var resistor input of the rtek? Meaning are you running it with the pocket looger and getting readings from the 02 in the pockect logger. Im just trying to get things known and ready in my mind so when i get the system i can run with it. And then go get my tune.

By the way If anybody needs a good tune at a cheap price that lives close to clumbus ohio. http://www.rx7store.net/ This place charges 100.00 an hour, They have never done a rtek but im going to be the test dummy if they like the setup.I sent them the users manual and they are supposed to get back with me and say weather or not they want to start doing them. so ill post a thread when i hear back from them. BUT EVERYONE THAT HAS RTEK SHOULD START CALLING THEM WHEN THEY GOING TO START TUNING RTEKS. YOU CAN SAY IM SPREADING THE RUMOR. CAUSE I AM. I NEED A PLACE TO TUNE NEAR ME AS I UP GRADE YA KNOW. THANKS EVERYONE.
