Default Help on Gauges

hi,
i've been doing a lot of reading here, what's better at detecting if your engine's running lean, A/F or EGT? I know A/F isn't all that accurate, and EGT needs to be referenced to a temperature. (Oh I'm running a H22, soon to be turbo by F-Max)

A wideband A/F is great if you can afford it. The egt is a great economical alternative.

I would HIGHLY recommend the Greddy EGT AND the Greddy A/F (I bought the greddy EGT but autometer a/f and regret it... the autometer is worthless/useless) The greddy a/f at least uses its own sensor and gives REAL numbers not just stupid leds.... It's no wideband but close enough that you could tune very well with it... I'm lookin to get one in the near future.
