That really stinks. I have read that some people's A/F ratio's were semi close to wideband on one side or the other.
Oh well, looks like I am stuck trying to find someone with a wideband.

I am in the same place myself. You can only use the Autotap numbers as a rule of thumb, as the Oxygen Sensors on the car on made only for a limited reading range to satisfy emissions requirements. It is for that reason that I ordered a wideband Oxygen Sensor, and then ordered a second one so that I will be able to read the A/F ratio in the real world as I modify and drive around. Not the cheapest way to go, but probably the most accurate. I have to install two additional sensor bungs, but will wait on that until I receive my Headers and install both the headers and widebands at the same time.
