Default LC-1 vs MTX-L question

I'm going to be street tuning my GS-R on NepTune, and I've got a question about which wideband to use.

Xenocron has this savings package that includes an ECU, NepTune, TunerView, and wideband option.

The standard controller in the kit is an LC-1, but they offer a $20 upgrade to MTX-L. I understand that install is simpler on the MTX-L and I've read rumors that it performs better.

I'm going to be getting a small TunerView in the package and a clock-pod from Luv2Boost, so I don't actually need a second A/F gauge.

My questions:

-Does the MTX-L perform better than the LC-1?
-Will the MTX-L gauge be more responsive than the TunerView since it's 'closer to the source?'
-Opinions?

The main drawback I see is that there aren't any great places to mount 52 mm gauges on g3 Integras.

Any input is greatly appreciated!

The control and circuitry is basically the same, I think they have some upgraded electronics that work "faster" they claim...

IMHO...go with the gauge, hide it in the glove box. Just in case you ever need to look at it first hand instead of through the Tunerview
