Default air/fuel gauge help...

Hello, i dont know if this is in the right forum but o well. My friends and I installed the autometer air/fuel and we hooked it up to the blue wire that comes off the O2 sensor on the s-pipe. Is this right, or dones anyone know the proper way. Its on but blinks in lean/stoich then when i touch the pedal or drive it goes straight to rich. it dont flash or go back and forth like i have seen others. I know its not that accurate but i just want to make sure i hooked it up right. Thanks

A narrow band gauge will not work on our cars...
You need a wideband setup if you want led blinker stuff..
AEM UEGO is a great gauge at $260
PLX Wide bands can convert the signal so you can already use your current gauge you have now. Thats a little more expensive.

For any setup for our car, you have to add an wideband o2 sensor into the spipe and get a wideband controller that can interpret the singal... look at innovate o2, plx o2, or AEM UEGO, on google and you'll find what you need....

Any A/F setup for out car will cost at least 200 bucks or so.

Dude I told you to pick up a wideband. I still have mine if you want it. AEM UEGO with bosch o2 sensor. I might have an extra o2 bung somewhere you can get welded in.

well bad news is, PLX seems to have discontinued the Narrowband converter. I was gonna suggest the M-250 kit and the converter.

You could try contacting PLX @ http://plxdevices.com

Your best bet is the AEM UEGO on eBay for $265 shipped.

As I stated, looks like PLX no longer makes the converter. So all narrowband A/F gauges will not work.

You need wideband that has a gauge to fill your pods.
