Utec general question

I have been milling in the forum for a little while and am really considering the UTEC. Seems a lot easier to tune than the AEM. But there are still questions I have, maybe some of you can help, Malibu this means you too!

With the tuner which I believe comes with the WB02, is there a way to display the AFR while driving in gauge form like the UEGO? What I forgot to add is I believe the DTEC can show this on the GBA and quite willing to fabricate the GBA video to a larger screen, but still use the GBA keys for switching screens.
I know that speed density is not available but someone mentioned something about the upper IC pipe.
Any decent tuners in the midwest? Just in case if I get stuck along the way.

The Tuner has a digital display that you can see if you mount it somewhere visible, I've seen some jury-rigged displays based on an FJO Wideband gauge hooked up to the 5v wideband output on the UTEC.. Also you have the DTEC and its AFR display, its actually large and easy to read if you mount it somewhere convenient.

I am using a blowthrough sensor to replace the stock MAF, although the UTEC doesnt have provisions for this method, I have been using a setup that has a Karmann converter. It does work, but takes a little time to get set up "just right" the new electronics they are offering..

Its very easy to work with, but just like any other engine managements solution, you can get into trouble with it.. So the wideband is definitely a good investment.
