Just curious if anyone out there has used the new AEM needle Wideband gauge and what they thought of it.

i like the illumination, wish my digital one had backlighting. other than that, it's slightly more complicated to setup can't see why i'd purchase that one over the digital unit.

Looks nice I had the digital one but as AMS stated in the review the digital gauge is hard to read in realtime. The last thing you wanna do is stare at a gauge to see whats going on when you are at WOT. I've always liked analog better. Once you get a feel for where the needle is supposed to be you can kinda monitor it in your periferal vision. Wish they had come out with one sooner.

52mm.

I also heard AEM lowered the price to the same price as the digital one.

My AMS high-flow cat came with one.



Once I figure out a good place to mount a boost gauge and this new AEM A/F gauge, I will buy it in a heartbeat.
