Unless you have a wideband sensor setup (doubtful) then these are NOT going to help you at all. When in closed loop they're simply gonna bounce back and forth. And in Open Loop (at WOT) it's completely useless too.

Save your money.

unless you are supercharged I wouldn't worry about such a set up ..take it to a competent tuner if a/f worries you
