Okay, i'm going to be getting my GT25R on the stock fuel system. I was going to get it dynoed just to make sure the A/F ratio is good so I don't lean it out (running 7.25psi).
I noticed several places sell widebands for a decent price (AEM, http://www.ka24de.com, lsauto.com, etc). Are these widebands any good? It might be easier if I just got a wideband rather than spending the money to get it dynoed. I'm eventually going to get 740cc injectors and a retuned ECU, but that's at least a month away, i want to be able to drive it before that.
Should I get a wideband or just get it dynoed with A/F ratio?
Wideband?
Well you can't tune with a wideband...it's just a sensor w/ a meter/gauge. You'll still need something like an emanage/safc/standalone/exc. If you have one of those and just want a 'safe' street tune, than it would be wise to tune w/ a wideband. The problem though is that unless you have a datalogger too, you't won't be able to tune (or go to a dyno). If you have to go to a dyno anyway, they should have a wideband to hook up with.

It's $90 for the 1st pull, then $15 per pull after that. I don't know how good that price is. But it's okay with me. I'll probably do 2 pulls.
I'm in Lancaster, Ca. It's at RE Racing (re-racing.com) it's too far from you. I'm sure there are places a lot closer where you can get just as good or better pricing.

I uses a wideband on my setup for day-day driving and for street tunning. I have a plx unit, it was $32 and the install is a snap. It has both wide and narow outputs for diffrent gauges. I have it hooked to my greddy e-01 so that way if the air/fuel runs to lean ( a point that i set up) It instantly lowers the boost to what my wasgegate is set at, 4psi. Works great so even if i have an injector start to crap out on my im still on the safe side. Works great. Also these new wide band sensors are good for over 60,00miles daily driven as there stock VW parts. Just a little info fo ya

ya those are the cheapest (good value) but if u can splurge buy the FJO....it ownz....
The tune from SS is incredible....when the temps are right (75deg ish) the GReddy A/F reads 12.0:1-11.8:1 generally at full spool....thats near perfect....the safc is zeroed out...only thing is that Scott Avoy doesnt work for SS anymore....hes gone independant,,,noit sure if he still does the rom burning tho...he might....hes the man that pulls off the ill ecu tunes
