I thinkmy A/F gauge is failing me OR my new Bosch 02 is going to shit. Anyhow I'm thinking of getting an better A/F gauge but don't know which one to get and the difference..ie the cyberdyne, Corbins, Jumptronix. THanks

I have made several posts about the quality of the bosch o2 sensors being WAY below acceptable

It could very well be your Bosch unit
I will only buy o2 sensors from the dealer
All mechanics will tell you the same
it might be more money but if it lasts years instead of months/days its worth it

I personally haven't seen Corbin's digital a/f gauge, but I bought a digital gauge from www.gadgetseller.com and I like it a lot. It's a little pricey, but it does come in various LED colors, and it's of the highest quality.

i hear that the bosch o2 sensors suck too. i stick with the OEM o2 sensors, they're usually the best. satan will charge you more than other generic o2 sensors, but it's one of those things that i can put up with, like getting gaskets from satan.

btw, i have the autometer lunar a/f gauge, i like it a lot. it looks pimp, and it tells me if my mixture is dangeriousally low. however, if you want to do some "real" tuning, get a digital volt meter. i hear they work a lot better. corbin used to make them, but i think that he "passed the flame on to another 2gnt member". anyways, i'm done now.

Get the Jumptronix or a Corbin clone. Anything else is practically useless for anything other than just looking cool.

If you don't have a TT yet(and if you do it's not in your sig so thats why I'm suggesting this) Get yourself an apexi TT. It comes with AF and O2 voltage settings and a voltmeter. It's a nice quality unit and small enough to fit on your dash. Here is a pic it's on the guage cluster ring there:

I edited to the wiki!

It's your O2 sensor.

I had the Autometer lightshow A/F gauge, and decided a digital voltage readout from my S-AFC is much better

Just think of it as half of an Eclipse with more power

I'm going to try to go back to Autozone and return the SOB or something (3 mo warranty) This 02 sensor is really messin with my A/F mixture and not to mention gas mileage. I can't believe it only lasted about a month and it crapped out on me.
As for the A/F gauge...I'll probably get Jumptronix one - maybe. I can't really tune it cuz i don't have a S-AFC. Thanks for all the help fella's. It feels like i have a new problem every week, but it's good to know I have the support of a board like this everyday. Thanks

Kirby, have you done any research on how well the APEXi TT works as far as the A/F readings? I can recall reading somewhere, think it might have even been on their site that they don;t recomend using it for any type of tuning because it tends to be a bit on the slow side in the readings.....Not sure how true that is, but I know I ran across it somewhere in my late night web scans......
