Which wide band should i run?

I got about $5500 in bolt on's on my car everytime i line up next to my budy with his RS he kills me by 3 to 4 cars and all he has is intake cone and cat back with test pipe. I was thinking it could be one of the mods but it's not. So i raced this guy with a 350z with 3 grand in it this guy happens to be from UTI the car school
I almost pulled the race due to the fact i was not pulling right so he's like lets just see how bad it is. We go at it from a roll 30 mph 2nd where side by side. As soon as i hit third the car pulls like it always does on that gear. Ne ways i beat him by 5 to 6 cars. He's tell me I can tell that your a/f is way off long story short i never really check that aspect of the car.

I want to be able to tune it not useing a labtop i need help.What should i buy?

I love my PLX, especially the external gauge.

Yeah, unfortunately the AEM gauge is a joke, but if you have a management/logger with an input, it does read/log the full ~9-19:1 the sensor is capable of. All I use it for is logging. The gauge isn't even in a very visible location in my car. The 11:1 max on the gauge is a waste and IMHO, rich should be on the right not the left

I am in the same boat... Well the wideband part. I am seriously considering the PLX... For 2 reasons it's cheaper and it works. What is the entry level model to be able to data log? I really like the M-300 price and it does what I want with the exception of data logging i think... Is data logging for mainly tuning? I really want to jsut know exactly what is goin on with my engine... I have a tune but I'd like to know what is going on in there when I dump in my race gas, crank the boost up and force my ecu to switch to my race map... Would data logging be unnecessary for what I need?

Sadly i've tuned a car with the aem uego external gauge setup and you see what you get. Even with the logger on the aem unit i still only see a range of 11-17.
