yes it should bounce around some.... mine (wideband and tuned LSJ) is from 14.5-15.0 at idle and cruising jumps to 11.9-12.0 at WOT and then kinda flips around as I blip the throttle

yea but a wideband is much better than narrow. you cant tune off a narrow band.

yes that would be muchbetter. coolant temp is a nice one to have but you already have the digital readout on the dash.
