A/F meters are eyecandy. They don't do jack for telling you the status of your fuel mixture. If you are thinking of running one with nitrous, get an EGT, not A/F.

If you want a good A/F gauge, get the Tomei. It'll cost you a bundle though.

they are mostly eye candy, it makes people who don't know that much think your car is alot tougher than it is.

yea thast what i heard, but is it the actual guage or the fact that ur 02 sensor is not made for that, unlike the other guages that come with a wide 02 sensor, cuz that might be the actual problem, anyways, what i was thinking was ill get fuel pressure guage and exhaust temp guage, cuz i learned that by gettin the temp u see if ur running lean(too hot), or rich (colder), or if it changes abruptly(clogged cat)
anyone know about this stuff?
