right now i have an autometer air/fuel gauge which i know isn't the most accurate but what is the best reasonalbly priced way to measure the exhaust gas temps???
what are you running in your particular set-ups? what types come with their own 02 sensors? thanks, Corey

EGT guage for around $150 or you could spring for a wideband for $300

personally I would go for the wideband (AEM or techedge)

In Jan. AEM is releasing the wideband in the form of the autometer guage with the controller built in, So im waiting for that....and money.

Innovative has a $350 wideband O2 kit including the actual O2.. can't beat that for the price.

Considering dumping my Tech Edge 1.5 for one. A friend has the Innovative unit, I'm waiting for him to install it so I can check it out first hand.

Just to clarify....and not to spread misinformation AEM is not selling a gauge that is "int he form of" an autometer af gauge. It simply has a radial type of display along with numeral value.

To answer the original posters question.
Best way is an aftermarket afr setup like FJO, Motec, AEM--their display isnt available yet so unless you run any type of standalone it will do you no good.

so for right now then what is my best option until i can get a standalone? i will get the hondata once my block is complete but for now i am running the vafc with the fmu 440's and inline fuelpump...what can i make sure that im safe with?

I have the Techedge 1.5 and am not all that wild about it. The only thing I really don't like is that you have to adjust it with little rotary ***** and kind of worry that they will end up going out of calibratioin with it staying in the car all the time.

That's one of my major concerns with the 1.5. I've also had quite a bit of trouble logging rpm with the 1.5, which has been very annoying.

These guys sell the FJO wideband tuning and datalogging kit. The prices on their website are in Canadian.

Here is a link to their standalone section:

Here is a thread I did on widebands

I have a PLX w/b and a buddy has their kit that converts the AutoMeter a/f to a true wideband display. It displays each LED = 0.5 difference a/f...


http://plxdevices.com/

finally w/b's prices are getting resonable, Thanks VW..

i got it, works dope<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by VTC_CiViC &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Innovative has a $350 wideband O2 kit including the actual O2.. can't beat that for the price. </TD></TR></TABLE>

I like the PLX idea, although I would want to change some of the green bulbs to yellow or red

B/C if you want a 11.5 as the a/f ratio then it might be hard to see the difference since 11.5 and like 13.5 have the same color bulb.

make sense?

^^^Very helpful thread.

the plx converter still uses a narrow band sensor right? are they as accurate as a true wideband?

double0Si

Yeah, I have the 4 digit display in my dash...

The techedge 2.0 kit is a huge step forward. Its 100% software controlled, and from my experience <u>very</u> acurate. Also, you can use a $20 palm to datalog.
