I have the innovate as well Stuart. That's the one that Lynsey sell and comes with interchangeable faces. Definitely need a wideband as standard narrow bands for normal cars only read a small band around perfect stoich of 14.7. This is no good for a turbocharged car running high boost. You will find it very difficult to mount it in the turbo downpipe especially facing downward without removing it. Then you have to ensure it will fit in the space allowed. You must also be able to remove it if needs be. The manual says you should calibrate it in fresh air every month or two but I find after a good period of not using will be enough to clear out the exhaust. For all these reasons I went for a comprimise and mounted it in the crossover pipe near the starter and facing the front of the car. It is also close to the grommet in the bodywork were the DME harness exits. I thought I would be able to push the sensor through the holes as the other end is attached to a black box of tricks but I couldn't. I had to cut and rejoin the wires then heat shrink them. The only other decision then is where to mount the gauge to get the best use out of it without spoiling your dashboard or A pillar [
] AFR gauge one of the best items I have ever bought for my car. Piece of mind is definitely well worth the £100 I paid for it.
