Wideband Sensor + A/F Gauge

yah as far as i know you just hook the a/f gauge up to the wire that goes to the ecu, which would still not give an entirely accurate reading. The rest of the wires in a wideband 02 are for the decoder which is the real way to get a perfect reading.

You can get a vw wideband for like 30 bucks
But yah I dont think it'd work. However, the kit that rx7store sells seems to be the best price, as far as I've been able to find for kits, and it's simple. Hook up the decoder, make some runs, go to ur comp and look at the results

The wideband controller at http://www.innovatemotorsports.com can output a signal to regular narrowband meters making them display your actual A/F ratio. This is still expensive, but at least you can keep your narrowband meter and actually make it useful. Also easier to mount an autometer than the whole wideband unit.
