Default Come on guys! narrowband air fuel

come on now. narrowband air/fuel gauges are not entirely useless. For someone who does not need exact ratio readings this gauge can be benificial. If someone is running nitrous, this gauge can save them from blowing their engine by telling them if something major is happening. I agree,it is not exact but it is much better than nothing. At least you will have an idea if the truck is running too lean or rich.

Nope. Research further why narrowband O2s are worthless at WOT (Google, turbobuick, Syty.net, many other sites). Then you will "see"...

They are nothing more than a pretty lightshow - ESPECIALLY at WOT. Equate them to being as effective as trying to listen for knock with your ear, and thinking that if you can't hear anything then all must be fine...
