Default Which wideband a/f gauge?

Looking for a decent gauge........doesn't have to be the best out there.......just looking for something that's mostly accurate and a good value

Haltech Dual Channel Wideband kit or the NGK AFX get my vote. The Haltech has a round gauge that you can place in a pod and the gauge reaction is quite quicker than the display on the NGK. However these two widebands are among the most accurate I've seen short of a OE/Lab grade lambda meter.

I've been using the AFX for about 9 months. Been doing a lot of VE and MAF tuning the last few days and it works great.

Greg Banish said he liked the NGK AFX for a budget minded unit while still being very accurate. That's what I'd go with if I was looking for one.

NGK AFX hands down an awesome unit has been really accurate and has never let me down tuning thus far.
