Well what're your questions? I've got one in my LSJ. Correct me if I'm wrong but the LNF has a wideband in it already.

LNF already has a wideband. Spend your money on HPT instead.

I sort of disagree there. To have an independent wideband to read at all times in the car is NEVER a bad idea. It's an invaluable diagnostic tool to have in tight situations. Plus the eugo isn't very expensive.

Seriously? Why would u tell this guy to waste his money on something when u can plug in a interceptor gauge into the computer port and read , plus get the benefit of having other readings? Bad advice. Op don't waste ur money on a wide band gauge, u don't need it. Waste it on a interceptor gauge that will read the wide band signal and give u ur a/f plus u can have a second sensor reading at the same time.

lol.. How is this bad advice? Whether he buys an interceptor to monitor the onboard wideband, a LM-1, an Autometer or a Eugo, it's the same principle in the end you argumentative tool. He has an in-car monitor of the wideband. This was simply all my point was, which you somehow still further supported by basically agreeing with me yet while at the same time saying I gave him bad advice.

I got a really good deal on a AEM boost and wideband gauge, I have the O2 bung and I know it needs to be welded into the downpipe, I just wasn't sure if I needed to buy anything else to run it

Difference is, intercepter can monitor everything else as well, standalone has a bunch of work attached to it, welding in bung, or buying downpipe with one, running the wires, few hours of work when u can just plug a intercepter in.
