Which wideband with HP tuners
About to order HP pro and trying to figure out which wideband to go with/why? Also, is the The Tuning School package worth the $$? Thanks

I am reading through the tuning school package now and its pretty fantastic. Its mostly information you can find online but organized much better and its much easier to find and understand the information. Once I get a good grasp of the first package, I am thinking about purchasing the advanced course.
It outlines everything. It isn't a step by step "this how you tune from start to finish" but it does give you instruction on the process.
If you can justify the $500 then I think its worth it. I learned more in the 2 hours last night I spent reading it than I did the rest of the day scouring here, google and hp tuners for the same information.

Mike F from S-K speed has great deals! HP Tuners Pro for $605 to my door and sent me a tracking number within minutes of payment.
I too am in the market for a wideband. Looking into the NGK AFX and Innovative has great products as well.

That is a good deal, why are you leaning towards the ngk-afx?

NGK AFX is the way to go. It is now bundled with the upgraded sensor if you purchase from Ballenger Motorsports, best price I've found as well. The AFX is a very good quality unit, where to surpass it, your spending thousands on a lab grade one. It is already programed into the scan function of the HP Pro version as well. You just pick the sensor from the drop down screen once you are wired up. Then it's a matter of a small adjustment to the function string to get it to read exactly what your unit displays after your free air calibration. Very easy to use, I've been using mine for almost 5 years now and its been perfect.

Well besides what he said, I've heard it's spot on with AFR's.

In addition, there are many options in the HPT menus for various wideband sensors....LC1,LM1,AFX,etc. As stated above, if you're not going to spend the big $$$ on a lab-grade lambda meter, then the AFX is a very good "budget" option. It has an NTK sensor, and the best part about the whole package: It has a 15' lead to the sensor that gives you plenty of flexibility to use it as a "take with you" package allowing you to use it for tuning multiple cars in a non-permanent installation. Definitely part of my tool box when street tuning.

I used the NGK/AFX only now. It provides the quickest response to the AFR than LM1, Fast, DynoJet that I tested.
Ill be up at the The Tuning School assisting with the advanced tuners course in two weeks. Its a great step by step calibration process.
Hope to see you there
