No doubt the MTX-L. No calibration circuit (not needed with the gauge anyway on the LC-1), only 1 ground wire, very easy to use. Still has all the features of the LC-1.

I work in IT, brand new doesn't always mean better. Not at first at least. Especially if the code is ground up rewrite. So, I won't have any compatibility issues if I go MS3X as I do like the reasons you cite track.

I don't know, but I know a lot of people complain about the non-V1.0 firmware on the LC1.

I think the MTX-L is your safe bet, as for MS3X compatibility, its a wideband so the signal is just like a normal wideband 0-5v from 7-22AFR (I think, I am sure brainy could chip in on his suggestion).

Only if you have a cage. Crumple zones + harness = bad typically as modern cars are typically designed with a different intent for passenger safety then the mindset of a race harness and cage.

Thanks guys. It turnout it was just a virus. Because of his heart condition and recent surgery, he was just more susceptible to it. They tell us this now instead of 4 weeks ago when he was released from following his heart surgery.
