Ok, just a heads up for those of you using widebands.
A friend of mine is running an aem ems in his civic. He was using a uego wideband as well. Come to find out when he was on the dyno that he was over a half a point off! That's huge. Lean out by a half a point if you run a strong tune and you can do some damage.
Anyways, he started using the PLX after hearing some good things and has found on the dyno that it is much more accurate and within .2 point. Much less room for error. Just a heads up about info I had gotten and wanted to share.
Keep in mind a wideband is a good tuning tool but if you really want to run safe, get to a dyno and pay the 100-200 bucks it'll cost you. Much cheaper than the money and time of replacing the motor. Happy boosting.
