Default Air/feul gauge boost gauge you dont need?

Anyone have both or one they don't need anymore that you can le t go for, hmm, lets see... 23 dollars? (preferably air/feul if just one) also, prefereably not the clock a/f gauge, but for this price, beggars can't be choosers!

Dont waste your time with the narrow band A/F its as much use as an ash tray on a motorbike...

No, the LED-type gauges are junk. A single LED can be anywhere between 10.0:1 all the way through 12.0:1. I actually look for the transistions between LEDs and when they flicker between two, you actually do have a single air-fuel ratio that can be resolved.

I can loan you a digital Link unit. It can actually resolve and display the difference between a 12.0:1 and a 12.4:1 mixture due to the analog display. But you still have to do three full-throttle runs and take only the reading from the 3rd run because the temp. of the O2-sensor needs to be stabilized. I need everything back including the chip-kit and wastegate once you're done though...
