Do A/F meters letting you know if your lean or rich work from companies like APC, AUTO METER, HKS, ETC..........or waste of money?

 

it's works but is not accurate.

wait for the wideband gauge coming out from AEM.

it is much more accurate.

 

Ditto, the others are just a light show.

 

the A/F meters do nothing
get a wideband

 

Thank you all for the input, i am waiting for the wideband. THXS!! again!

 

While waiting for the AEM wideband, check out the A/F digital from dynotune.org.

 

uh..teh AEM is a blinkey blinkey light display as well...better off having something that will read actual A/F digitally. Without knowing what A/f determines what "blinkey light" turns on, its basically a waste IMHO. This is what is inherently wrong with the Autometer unit - none has any idea what A/F it takes to actually make it read in the "rich" zone.

FJO sells one right now with a digital display that would suit you well, and its quite affordable

 

Its not only a blinky blink, it also has a digital read out and its a wideband in a 2 1/16 gauge. to good to be true Here is a pic

 

ah very neat then......I had heard about it from my staff who was at SEMA but had not seen it myself....nice little unit! Whats MSRP for that add on?

 

I don't think it comes out until January, thought I read that somewhere.

 

Jan or feb is what I heard and under 400 MSRP for the whole kit including the sensor. I am looking forward to it.

 

? Would one need to add a threaded "bung-hole" to attatch? Or would the pick-up replace an existing O2 sensor?

 

you would have to add another one. Even though it will also carry both a 1v and 5v output. these o2 sensors read slower then factory units and it might throw a SES light. Just what I have heard.

 

i think i would pick an existing hole and rig the original sensor to read the correct running voltage.

 

Now the question will be is when are we going to get a gauge pod pillar?

 

The LM-1 is a nice wideband unit for the money:

Kind of a bulky box, though it can be permanently mounted and can drive a remote display if desired...

 

Any way to fit this AEM gauge into the 60 mm (2 3/8) gauge pod I have coming on the A-pillar? Some sort of outer ring or something?

 

Yeah but the LM uses a really cheap sensor.

 

I thought that the gauge pods were 2 1/16? I better check the "pod" thread again...

 

Would you mind elaborating? Cheaper is better if you don't suffer any problems as a result. In my somewhat limited research, I have not found any definitive evidence that the Bosch LSU sensor has any problems that the more expensive NTK sensor doesn't. But I'd like to know if you know something I don't. Also, you can use the NTK sensor with the LM1, which is what setups like the FJO wideband use.
