O2 controller recommendation

[TZepeSH]

I am preparing the parts for MS2Extra in y type4, and I would like some opinions on the Wideband controller to choose. I would use a controller for Bosch LSU 4.9, and I think that one which uses the original CJ125 chip from Bosch would have very good results.
So I came up to these controllers:
1. Innovate LC-2. I do not like this one because of feedback on poor reliability from many users.

2. Ecotrons ALM-S. Looks interesting because they are the only ones who say are using CJ125 chip.

3. PLX. Had good reviews until now

4. 14point7 Spartan2. Looks small and well done, also good reviews

So, which one to choose?

Looks like you have eliminated 2 from the start. I have used older 14point7.com units and never had any failures. Almost a coin toss with the remaining choices.

14point7 products are nice as far as i can tell. I've got the Megaspartan 4ch setup in my turbo car. Works good so far.

I did not eliminate any of them. The Innovate LC2 is the one I like least, but all other three have equal chances. ALM-S has a big point for using CJ125, but looks like a hobby project and I do not know how well it resists in car all the time: vibration, heat.

I also have an lc2, its been in service for a few years. No problems.

I'm pretty happy with my PLX and Multigauge.

I also scored on an EGT sensor and PLX controller to daisy chain to the gauge this past winter for $49.95.

I did have a LM-1 for a couple years until it died on me.....The PLX is 3 years old now and I have put on at least 16,000 miles with it.

I am preparing to order the wideband controller, and I narrowed the options to two:
1. 14point7 Spartan 2. I like Alans presence on forums and his professional replies and explanations. He's critical on his products, but the Spartan 2 has a very high quality from my point of view, developed for automotive use with automotive components. A bit cheaper at 125$.
2. AEM 30-0310 X-series. Big corporation and very good design. Also good presence on forums, although not from a seller point of view, but passionate employees working on those products. Also not so expensive at 162-175$.

Very good info on this topic, comparing a lot of the common wideband controllers:

I have recently ordered the SLC Free 2, it has a built-in display and will make my temp install much easier as I need something to tune my dual IDF's. For some reason the JAW and NAW units are not working, even with a new 4.2 sensor.
