Default Which Wideband?

I'm going to buy a wideband 02 guage/sensor. Can anyone reccomend a good brand? I've looked at Autometer and AEM. Is there a "better" one?

Look for something with the ability to calibrate in free air and
at least has one analog output that has the lambda range clearly defined in the manual.

ive always had good luck with the innovate stuff. I also had an AEM that worked great

Like was rpeviously said, make sure it has the ability to output a signal that you can log. Its almost more useful than the gauge itself

LC-1 with XD guage here had it for several years on my Mustang and moved it over to the Trans AM. I've only gone through 1 O2 sensor in several years and works great with HPT Pro.

AFX is the most accurate, and can be recalibrated. Do some research and you'll agree. I won't own anything other than it, except a higher-grade ECM offering.
