contents For a balanced sutured manifold $(M,γ)$, we construct a decomposition of $SHI(M,γ)$ with respect to torsions in $H=H_1(M;\mathbb{Z})$, which generalizes the decomposition of $I^\sharp(Y)$ in previous work of the authors. This decomposition can be regarded as a candidate for the counterpart of the torsion spin$^c$ decompositions in $SFH(M,γ)$. Based on this decomposition, we define an enhanced Euler characteristic $χ_{\rm en}(SHI(M,γ))\in\mathbb{Z}[H]/\pm H$ and prove that $χ_{\rm en}(SHI(M,γ))=χ(SFH(M,γ))$. This provides a better lower bound on $\dim_\mathbb{C}SHI(M,γ)$ than the graded Euler characteristic $χ_{\rm gr}(SHI(M,γ))$. As applications, we prove instanton knot homology detects the unknot in any instanton L-space and show that the conjecture $KHI(Y,K)\cong \widehat{HFK}(Y,K)$ holds for all $(1,1)$-L-space knots and constrained knots in lens spaces, which include all torus knots and many hyperbolic knots in lens spaces.
