Default wideband air/fuel ratio gauge. help please

ok, i just found out that a/f gauges(a la autometer) are inacurrate because of the range that it can read off of from the stock o2 sensor (0-1v). I also found out that widebands are more accurate because they run a wide range (0-5v). If this is the case, couldn't i get a wideband sensor and just replace the stock one and then tap the autometer gauge for more accurate readings? i'm very new at this so your help is greatly appreciated. thanx ya'll.

No, you still need a controller for that wideband oxygen sensor. That's what the $500+ kits are - a sensor and controller, and usually a display. The FJO has 5 or 6 wires running between the controller and actual sensor.
