Well personnally i really don't care to see it. SO I guess I will correct. For what I want the blitz is a better/cheaper deal then the HKS. All I want to see is AFR bank 1 and 2. Boost through my boost controller. A/F correction bank 1 and 2, and fuel pressure. All the other things such as coolant temp, oil temp and pressure, EGT I don't care about. Thingsyou would never really buy a guage to see anyway so i don't see that being a deal breaker now. I personally think that the blitz is a better deal. Yes you can hook more sensors up to the camp 2 but its going to run more money for a bunch of guages you really don't need. If I ever need to get rare info i will just hook my laptop up to my car with my up-rev cable and run a data log.

for sure! I rather be able to monitor my A/F more than anything. I feel you on that! Supercharger don't really need the EGT. how ever if you're TT you should have an EGT gauge. let me know how that unit is. btw, are you connecting this through your audio video input? there's a module that you can buy and it allows you to listen to music and monitor the gauges at the same time. that's what I'm using right now and I recommend anybody that's getting digital gauges should get this too. expensive but worth it imo.

Getting an A/F reading based on the OEM sensors is not going to give you all the information you want. In most cars, the OEM O2 sensors are narrowband and are only meant to be accurate in a range around 14.7 since that's what the car will target in cruise mode (i.e. not under load). If you want to measure A/F accurately on an FI car, you need a standalone wideband sensor.

FYI

These cars do come with a wideband sensor from the factory.

Oh, no kidding? I stand corrected! Any idea why the factory is using a wideband on a non-FI car?

A TT huh? I wonder if they will change the tranny then to make sure it lasts. And how much more will it cost. It seems kinda wierd as it would be infringing on the GTR tho.

All late model vehicle have wideband sensors, Narrowbands are a blast from the past due to all the new Strict EPA requirement for emissions and MPG.

Besides wideband sensors are a lot more accurate then narrow band, 1 volt vs 5 volt range .
