That's the key, accuracy of information.  I used to used narrow band ones until some on this board (Kenny & Adam) got me hooked on the benefits of wide band.   At first I used a innovative one I plugged into the 02 port but now I have a permanent AEM one in the exhaust pipe before the CAT.

Realtime AFR readings RULE!! epically with forced induction.

I've thought about doing the same thing before, but don't really want to get rid of the DIC. I think I'm going to go with an A pillar gauge pod instead.

not bad. I actually added an off switch for the DIC in my STE, you coupe guys don't have to deal with this but I got fed up real quick of constant 1-second interval beeping when my washer fluid tank ran dry. My gauges are on the a-pillar, and I'm thinking of adding a Cutlass DIS possibly in an overhead bin. I miss have the digital display for voltage and whatnot, especially considering my cluster needs a rebuild. Redundant? Oh yeah.

Narrow band o2 sensors read from 0-1 volt. Wide band o2 sensors read from 0-5 volts...  ;)
