importpoweronline.com has widebands for $350. That's pretty damn cheap in my book.

I would imagine an SAFC2 could be had for about $200 used somewhere.

We have the zeitronix ZT2 from $275 which is the best available. We both sell, use and swear by this product. Best investment EVER!

AEM Uego is the worst on the market. If buying a WBO2 for reasons that it will fit your gauge pod, you are not buying for the right reasons. I would the new Innovate XM-1 I think it is. IMO, not as good as the zeitroinix, but better than the AEM and fits a pod.

I have the zeitronix as well and it has proved to be very useful. With the optional boost and egt it saves a lot of clutter from gauges as well.

I'm completely satisfied with my AEM wideband. I have no problem logging the bosch sensor on my stealth (via datalogger). I have seen nothing that would lead me to doubt its accuracy (from either EGT, knock, or stock 02 sensors).

Its range is lacking. Evo's a/f ratio stock is out of range for the AEM to read correctly. I believe the gauge starts at 11.0 or 11.1 min.

Zeitronix can read down to about 9.5a/f. Stock a/f is about 10.5-10.8. Zeitronix has also won accuracy tests, being closer to the $25,000 test wideband unit than the rest.

Last time we dynoed we used an innovate in the pipe and the Zeitronix in the DP. While ours was saying one thing, the innovate was about 0.60 richer. I would not have liked to tune on the edge and then gone -0.60 leaner and be in piston melting territory if relying on the other unit.
