Default Innovate AFR readings off

MS2/Innovate Nightmare
04 msm
650cc fic
MS2 enhanced
Innovate wb02

So the car idles fine at with an AFR value anywhere from 14.1-14.9. But TunerStudio only reads the value at 10-11. I assume this is why I cannot run autotune successfully within TS. I have a few data logs of it while its idling good at 14.7 (according the the innovate gauge) but as soon as I start to drive with autotune it kinda turns to ****. Is it correct to assume that the innovate gauge is accurate, and the reading tunerstudio is getting is off?
I have the innovate grounded at the same spot as the stock ecu, but not the same point of origin, right next to the throttle body with its own wire.

I have the Innovate MTX-L and the enhanced DIYPNP. Try using custom linear wideband and use the values:

0.2v - 7.3 afr
5.0v - 20 to 22 afr

I was able to get them to match perfectly. Make sure to open-air calibrate the wideband sensor first.

Which wire of the LC-1 did you connect to the yellow wire of the MS2 Josh?

By default the yellow wire of the LC-1 is set-up as a simulated narrowband output i.e. only 0-1v

http://www.innovatemotorsports.com/s...C-1_Manual.pdf - Page 4 step 6, I'm guessing you didn't read the install instructions....

You can reconfigure it in LM-Programmer as a 0-5v output very quickly though.

I have tried everything and cant think of anything else I can try. Its still doing the same thing with tunerstudio not getting an accurate reading.

Afr Wont Display On Tuner Studio? - Forced Induction & N/A Power Mods - MX5Nutz Forum

ive tried everything in that thread too, but with no change.
changing the settings to lambda didnt do anything, nor did changing them to afr. and changing it to a 0-5v output didnt do anything either.

any more advice?

Quite, the answer is in here, but OP seems to not want to actually try that for some reason.

yes i have set the outputs in lm programmer, and it didn't change anything. it would change the value tunerstudio got, but it would be stuck at whatever value it would change to.
and it would still not match the value the innovate gauge was reading.

or put another way:

I have confirmed I'm outputting 0-1v to my 0-5v input.
