hello

hi,i am new here wanted to say hello and ask a question.
ok so i just had a turbo kit installed and was wondering if i will need a a/f gauge after tuning. i will be running 6 to 10 psi of boost, rc550,walbro 255 pump and golden eagle rail. i will not be adjusting boost after tuning so nothing should change (correct or incorrect). new to this so any help will be appreciated.
thanks

You won't need an A/F gauge after tuning, but it's definitely a nice thing to have. Just because you have the car tuned, doesn't mean that things can't go wrong. I have a wideband O2 sensor and a wideband AFR gauge in my car, and I love knowing what my exact AFR is at all times. It's a great tool to have for troubleshooting.

I agree with Voodoo, and Have more info. if you got your car tunned in winter and its lets say 30 Deg. and you keep the tune through the summer and its 100 deg. then your tune isn't going to be good anymore.. So its a good idea to have a wideband to make sure you are running safe at all times.. But no you don't need one..

If you decide to get one let me know I will give you a good deal.
