AFR gauge / Wideband

[merl]

Hi friends, 

Anyone have one of these that I can borrow when I install my engine? This will be installed just to make sure my baseline is okay until I go to the dyno ... thought I would give it a shot .. 

Thanks

Why not just purchase one so you have it in the long run and can always know that it is fine?

200 bucks is not the worst thing in the world

they are nice to have just to keep an eye on things

I just don't really see the long term need for it as I am NA but maybe you are right ... recommendations ??

Innovate LC1. Very good bang for the buck now. When I bought one and they came out, they were still priced well.

I second that for the innovate Lc-1.. I didnt like the narrow band simulation though so i recommend using both with two bungs welded.. one for the the ecu and one for just afr readings..

Agreed with running narrowband and wideband. Simulated narrowband will piss off Motronic when it sees a voltage slightly higher or lower or higher than expected (some ECUs operate from 0.1V to 1.1V and some sensors read 0.0V to 1.0V  etc)  and you will get a CEL. 

I really hope the W.A.R. chip setup works phenomenally for you but if you end up springing for Megasquirt you will definitely want a wideband setup.
