Since the harnesses and leads are hard-wired to the gauge back, Evans decided to install the gauge in the pod first to determine if there is enough wire to join the harnesses under the dash. Tip: Evans uses a shot of WD40 so the wires slip through the firewall grommets easier. Use an existing route when possible and if you drill a new pathway be sure to install a rubber grommet to avoid wire fraying. Remember, the most accessible under hood spot may not be as user friendly inside the cabin.

The manual calls for creating an additional circuit using an automotive relay.

In reading the user manual, page three produced the first tip. Jadan Evans, who has been an installation tech at English Racing for about a year and a half, was put in charge of the install. The goal of the install was to show some of the important aspects of the job and convey some insider tricks the pros use so enthusiast can optimize their own installs. Lucas’ other Evo X is the quickest Evo X in the world, setting the record with an 8.48 at 164 mph at the 2017 TX2K event. English Racing is a preeminent tuner in the northwest, specializing in the Evo, R35 GT-R, and anything with a turbo and a boost-hungry owner. We enlisted English Racing out of Camas, Washington to install a MTX-L PLUS in owner Lucas English’s Lancer Evolution X. The gauge features a Bosch LSU 4.9 wideband O 2 sensor that combines accuracy and durability, even in the harshest race conditions. The MTX-L PLUS can display in AFR or Lambda and provide full datalogging capability. The MTX-L PLUS is also designed to endure heat cycling better which is key in high temperature applications like forced induction or nitrous. The Innovate Motorsports MTX-L PLUS air/fuel ratio gauge has cat-like reactions so its fast output speed means the ECU can see changes in the engine mixture as they happen, allowing the engine control system to make adjustments more efficiently.

The MTX-L PLUS kit includes a 52mm gauge, the Bosch sensor, silver and black bezels, white and black faceplates, an exhaust bung, program cable, and your choice of 3-foot or 8-foot sensor cable harnesses.

It’s all about movement as things happen quick at 8,000 rpm. Datalogging combustion events is an important factor in painting a masterpiece of combustion, and the engine’s air/fuel ratio is a key variable to use in monitoring the engine so you can make smart tuning moves. Knowing what’s going on in the combustion chamber is critical if you plan to tune the affair. The colors are brighter, the inspiration more fulfilling, and the knowledge gleaned is more detailed when you can see every millisecond of the process. We install Innovate’s new MTX-L PLUS wideband air/fuel ratio gauge on English Racing’s Evo X and test it at the track!Ĭombustion is a beautiful thing to behold.
