Lambda Link - Thor Racing (Japanese Performance Car Tuning)

Lambdalink shows what air/fuel ratio the ecu is reading. Its pretty easy to install if you know how to get to the ecu wiring and can use a soldering iron.

Some bumf here - http://www.linkecu.com/products/Anci...mbdaLinkManual

ecu pinouts here - New Page 1

but they look crap!

Does not an air/fuel gauge that sits in the pod work in much the same way?..... I am guessing the Lamda is more acurate

works same way, but i'd put my 3 most important gauges in the pod (boost/oil p/oil t). To make things look nicer the lambdalink box can be done away with and the leds can be fitted into the dash or something. Have seen a set of leds fitted into the face of the cup holder
