To the laptop. Innovate LC-1 controler has 2 output one for laptop, one - for gauge.
Sensor itself should be connected like this, but more vertical position will be better.

Also aren't the FCR carbs pretty rare and more importantly aren't the intake rubbers even rarer?
Would I just have to wait until someone decides to part with some? Or are there any other options?
Yes, bought all set - pistons, rigns, pins. It cost me 200$ - new ordered will cost me twice more.
Yes, FCR is rare. But Japanesse sells them very often and it can be setup anytime as far as you have HRC airbox already.

Are these different to the ones that you are talking about?
I am not going to buy these as I am in no financial position to buy any trick bits until Feb but would I be looking for something like these or something different?
From my translation program it says in the advert you either get short or long trumpets. Shouldn't you get both so you can set them up?

This is for NC23 and price is 1588$.. to far from my financial capability. I saw them arounf 300-400$. Left them at the end of your list.

Long trumpets work for middle-rpm, short - high-rpm. 2 short, 2 long - is good compromise, but I saw Rick Oliver told that 2 short, 2 long work better, than 4 short - maybe this is depend of the other setting and engine.
BTW, on the newest bike trumpets is adjustable [youtube]

I assume for 300 400 dollars they would be second hand?
I think my best bet would be to post when I have the money to see if I can findsome.
If anyone has a link to some on any auctions sites etc please post as I would be interested in looking at then and see what they go for.

Out of interest will most/any 32mm FCR carbs fit?
Do they use the standard inlet rubbers?

If they're not built for the CBR they won't have the right spacing due to the cam gear drive. Not that they couldn't be modified to fit - see Parus' injection thread.
