intake vs. wideband

so i came into an extra 300 bucks this month and was debating bewtween getting a wideband o2 and an aem (or other short ram tube) intake. i plan on getting it tuned after the intake, but thought it would be a good idea to get the wideband FOR that. any thoughts?

So you are asking if it would be better to get a wideband or an intake?? If so I can tell you that a wideband would be a better choice. A tune is hands down the best bang for buck mod that you can do on a car.

Why not both? Just get an open element filter and adapter for around $50 and the rest for a wideband.

Exactly A wideband can be had for $200 if you shop around, which leaves you with $100 for an intake.
