i'll answer some of your questions to the best of my abilitry there buddy.

1) break in for the actual ECU = No
2) wideband allows you to be able to tune your car using data log. It will actually tell you the true a/f ratio. guages of a/f are just nice for the lights haha
3) dont really know a good brand cause i haven't started to look into buying one just yet. I do know they are alot of money and you'll probably end up spending 250 for one.
