Default Wideband Question?

I understand the importance of having a good wideband AFR gauge inside the car.

I'm looking at an AEM gauge. Is this a reputable brand?

Also, will I need to install another bung in my off-road midpipe or can I just remove one of my existing O2 sensors and install the AEM sensor in it's place (my car has the MIL eliminators)?

If not the AEM, which brand do you guys recommend?

Thanks guys!!!!

You will need another bung--because you apparently have an "off-road" mid-pipe, are running MIL eliminators, and do not have the rear sensors turned off in the tune (which would cause an immediate emissions fail in many states).

As to brand it really doesn't matter they are all pretty much the same...

I just got done installing my aem, it's a great product. Very straightforward install and yes you will need a separate bunt for the o2

Thanks for the responses guys.

Stanger - what type of gauge pod did you mount yours in?

I'm really leaning toward the single pod on the steering column.
