Aem wideband

Need help with my wideband I just installed
At idle it jumps around from 14.0 to 15.4
Is this normal?

Yeah it's somewhat normal. At idle the exhaust isn't flowing as fast so some of the exhaust gases might linger around and throw off the reading. Rev it up a bit and it should smooth out.

Mine does that too at Idle, sometimes even at cruise it does it, though not as much.

your good dude. its the computer controlling the fuel. it leans out then compensates by dumping more fuel (going rich). What you want to look at is the WOT reading.

those numbers are very normal for idle, even at partial throttle. if it isn't around 11-12 on your gauge at full boost or WOT then that's when something is wrong.
