but like the other 2 guys mentioned its mostly just useless and it doesnt really do anything besides give u a reading.
i got the same one, well not the tinted, i got the glowshift 7 color white... it does a full sweep when i turn it on (like all my gauges) but then just sits there at lean, never moving at all, even at wot

I was going to get the glow**** tinted series gauges. i was going to get the on that has air/fuel and the volt reading in one, the oil pressure, and the water or vaccum gauge.. now im not so sure i want the air/fuel if it doesnt read properly. i really wanted it for the light show lol didnt want the needle.

yah you're right, once i start getting my motor going... it's funny though, everyone keeps asking me what it is and says it looks cool haha... also i just realized that the wideband is like 4X more expensive lol, that says a lot

Yeah my buddy had one just like that in his civic and it always read lean, until he put a bigger fuel pump, injectors, computer, and turbo then it was completely and uterly pegged to rich it actually wanted to snap and of course like every other honda i've seen it blew black smoke like a diesel it was running so damn rich. His car didn't make it very far though. After all that money and work he sold it to some kid in buffalo for 3000. It was a 94. Sorry for carrying on. lol
