engine and drivetrain Need Recommendation On Tuning Meter For My Tii

[Maximillian]

Hi all,

 

So I finally have the tii back from the engine rebuild and hooking everything together. I have always wanted to put a fuel/air tuning meter in the car so that I can get real time and historical data logging on how the car is running. From your experiences, which set up or kit would you recommend for a tii ?

 

These folks seem to have an impressive product:

Thanks in advance for your assistance,

Max

I have an innovate LM02 system.  If I could start from scratch again, I would try the 14point7 system

For permanent install we sell and use a the MTX-L from Innovate.

Bnam,

 

Could you please tell me why you prefer the 14point7 over the other ?

 

Thanks,

I have an old Innovate system with a small expansion module to read RPM and other analog inputs. To be useful you really need the RPM (or load) data to interpret AFR.

Max, Jim Gerock and I both have the AEM 30-5130 analog gauge. (Jim did it first. I copied him.) With the black face, it looks right at home on the tii's dashboard. The AEM link is here

Dumb question here, but where did you choose to mount the sensors?

[thehackmechanic]

Search for the part number and you'll find Jim's long thread on it. The bung gets welded into the head pipe, after the two pipes join, near the end where the head pipe mates to the center resonator. The oxygen sensor threads into the bung. The gauge, obviously, you can mount wherever you wish, but a nice place for it is the change cup to the left of the steering wheel.
