The trucks do not come wired for them, you need to put a wideband on your truck. I have the aeroforce interceptor with the wideband kit. You can monitor just about everything with this set up.

but in case you dont want to shell out the $350 for the interceptor and wideband kit, there are several other wideband kits as well. Zeitronix ZT-2, Dynojet wideband commander, and the one I chose -- the Innovate LC1. The 3 i listed are only the wideband, so you'd need the gauge but the whole package can be had for around $200

+1 with the AI and wideband kit. I love mine specially with everything you can monitor at once it is a great setup well worth the price tag

It is very nice to be able to monitor multiple parameters with one gauge.

there is only one thing bad about the aeroforce interceptor -- the price. If you're only looking for AFR, you're better off with something else. However, if you're willing to pay the extra $150 roughly, its really nice to have SO many different parameters for your viewing pleasure

well that and good datalogging. You would think for the price, they coulda installed a slot for a SD card for datalogging. It would be wonderful to be able to compare on print the different ways your truck reacts when you adjust this and that. Oh well, that's how it goes.

Well that depends on what you are looking for. I have no issues with keeping an eye it while driving around after making some adjustments wiith my dsp.

if you were to use a narrow band gauge what color is the signal wire off the O2 sensor?
