ST-1 with all availabe bells and whistles to tune 84 to 95 cars.
Sat in the box for about 18 months but now is used in anger on a number of cars.
Mike Vance uses it most of the time so he may chip in with additional comments.

Thanks guys, it looks like the only one so far in the Atlanta area is Dans.
I would have thought there would have been more of them with as many 928's that are around here.

I have a H pipe that I was told was made by DR, and a LM1, LM3 and a few other Innovate bits I need to take off of my Corvette to use on my car and Dans.

I suspect that I am going to need a X pipe, mainly because that is what most folks that are serious about performance are going to have.

Now I need a dyno and a place to put it, yea like that is going to happen.

Any body know how much they go for and if you can find them used.

Maybe I could put it on my Snap-On account.

Just a regular ST1 w/breakout box set up for '85-'86.5, my boosted shark uses Innovate WBO2 in an x-pipe.

I've got an ST-II. Using the LC-1 WBOS on one side of an x-pipe and the NBOS on the other side.

I don't know that I like the LC-1. I may try a Tech Edge or something else. I also don't think I really like getting the WB data from one side of the )(-pipe while the LH sees the NB data from the other side of the )(-pipe. I don't think it matters a lot at high loads. But, at low loads I suspect that it does.

You can run two Wide Band O2's and have one also emulate a narrow band, IF you can get it to work in that mode, I never could with the LM1, but I suspect it may be smarter than I am.

Also, what would most of you folks think, with out knowing would be a fair price for Shark tuning a customers car?

I do know this much, and I do not even have a ST2 yet, there is a lot more to it than just hooking up and spending a couple of hours with the car.

I am running the same configuration and I also suspect that it makes a difference. There are very specific and fully repeatable scenarios at light throttle cruise where the LH makes some crazy corrections that I do not observe when I have the stock cats with one nbO2 sensor in the middle. I was thinking of having another bung welded into the middle of my X-pipe for this reason. I could go with two widebands, but then I would have to purchase another wbO2 controller capable of this function (my 2J1 only supports one sensor), and it seems much easier to just add another bung.

Default Oh Don't be so dramatic....

All you got to do is Dyno what, 800 - 1,000 customer cars and it's paid for itself. It's "new" so it shouldn't need any maintenance for a while
OK, flame proof underwear on, fire when ready gentlemen....

Seriously though.......$111K....seriously?
