If you don't mind, I would also like to ask how to use the gauge to read "true" A/F ratios?

You can get a wideband add on kit, that included the sensor and wires. You hook it into one of the analog inputs of the gauge.

as long as you have it wired properly any boost gauge will work

But an interceptor monitors like 50 other things on top of AFR. Thats not really it's purpose. Unless you are running dual interceptors.

Or even cheaper, just buy a mechanical gauge. Easy to install and they are like $80 bucks

$189 for just the extra wires for the wideband sensor? Is that what he meant?

If you put in an interceptor, it should read boost off the PCM as one of the many paramaters it reads.
It would be labled MAP/Vac or something like that.
