Default Whats a good air/fuel guage besides autometer???

im lookin for a nice air/fuel meter for my car..
something thats really nice and easy to read..
i was leaning towards the Greddy one... but its expensive
because it comes with its own o2 sensor...

any other ideas?? does Defi make any?
what about apex?

pics would be nice

Halmeter is GREAT! :D autometer is known for being one of the most inaccurate gauges...if you get a numbered gauge a higher number means more lean i think...

Ummm, none. :D Greddy is going to be the best of the non-wideband variety. If you have the money for a wideband, try the FJO unit. It is extremely accurate.

If you are going to get a $100 or less a/f gauge I say go with this one. I have it and I am happy with it.

hook up a voltmeter and tune to a specific voltage....the jumptronix unit is also very useful, backlit and very accurate.

I didn't say it was cheap. It's a true wideband setup though. A fellow MR2 owner hook up the FJO unit when his car was on the dyno, and the FJO readings were basically identical to the dyno's wideband unit.

Autometer is junk. I'd go with the Greddy or Apexi. If you invested alot of $$$ into the engine...then its worth spending the extra $$ to maintain.

I got mine locally from Extreme Motorsports... I don't know if they still carry it because one of my friends tried to get one and they didnt have it... although they do still advertise it on their website, you might want to call them and ask...
Here is a link to their site with the page that has the gauge on it:

Take care.
