Im in the market for a wideband for my car. Everywhere I read says this is one is better than this or that does this, or that one \> this one. It bounces back and forth. So I wanna know from people with experiences with widebands who they would go with. Im kinda liking the Innovate Wideband ![http://www.fullthrottlespeed.com/ebaypics/innovate_xd16standalone.jpg](http://www.fullthrottlespeed.com/ebaypics/innovate_xd16standalone.jpg) ---

from what others have said it seems the plx-300 seems to be the most common and reliable out there. Personally I have the AEM UEGO Which I have replaced the O2 Sensor twice on at $57 a pop from summit. Not bad, it doesn’t bounce either. ---

I’ve got one but it hasn’t seen much use, wondering if there’s something I gotta be looking out for… i used one before and it would jump around on me, and if it would go to rich or to lean it would lock up, and not work right i just good experance with plx used aem for a yea its pretty good too ---

Gotcha. Yeah, mine moves too but I attribute it to running closed loop as it doesn’t move when she goes open loop at idle or into boost. Hasn’t locked up on me. Knock on wood… ---

i heard alot of good things about the PLX also. i had a aem for my car was in the car 2 times for like 5 minutes it never worked right so i replaced it with a broken greddy egt gauge thats not even hooked up and its more accurate than the aem ever was.
