Ok I just I plan on getting 3 Gauges for my I35... I just put in a Air/Fuel Ratio one and briged the o2 sender to the white wire on the front o2 sensor... It moves around abit and when I floor it it goes to rich.. Its a narrow band so is it going to move that much.. or did I attach it to the wrong wire???

And I was going to get Oil Temp or Oil pressure and Fuel Pressure.. which ones are good choices???? any other suggestions

Thanks for the help!!!!!

Is this on a stock car?If it's an auto, trans fluid temp would definitely be one of my choices. Oil temp or oil pressure would be the other Probably oil pressure. Unless you're messing with FI or hardcore tuning I don't see much reason to bother with fuel pressure unless you just want another gauge for the heck of it.

Oil pressure and trans temp I think is what I'd go with.

i have the autometer a/f ratio, transmission temp & a volt meter since our cars dont come stock with one. i know, the volt meter may have been a dumb choice but i get tired of having to guess whats wrong when the battery dies...this way i would know its the battery. not that it even happens that often but whatever...different strokes for different folks. however, i have had these for about 2-3 yrs now just sitting in the closet cause i cant find anybody who knows how to install them.

unless you have a wideband o2 sensor your afr gauge is a worthless expense - doesn't work with narrowband sensors.
