Default Air/Fuel Ratio Gauge

Hey guys, just wondering if any of you know anything about the air/fuel ratio gauge. I just bought a voltmeter gauge from glowshift and im going to order a second gauge wednesday along with the pillar pod from AM. Just wondering if any of you know how the air/fuel ratio gauge hooks up?

i hope you have better luck with glow shift than i did. my digital a/f gauge from them was a POS, it wasnt even wideband! I wont ever trust that eBay Chinese garbage company ever again.

personaly i would say just spend the money and go with a big name brand.

If you're going to get an a/f gauge, get one from FAST.

the a/f gauge is only worth it if you get a wideband kit. this requires a controller, a wideband O2 sensor and a wideband gauge. I have a dynojet wideband kit. It works well. the AFX kit is another good one. You will also need to remove your x or H pipe to cut a hole and install (weld) in a o2 sensor bung. It needs to go in front of the first cat as close to the exhaust manifold as you can get it and have clearance to remove it when it goes bad. These do have a limited life span. Mine's been on there for a couple of years now but I also only drive mine around 2K miles a year.

the cheap a/f gauges you can buy just hook up to your existing 02 sensor circuit and are only a light show.
hope this helps.
