Ok everyone I'm gonna use a MF2 injector controller with 440cc injectors 2 of them....i'm debating on what to use for tuning.....I know a dyno is the best thing but I don't have access to one easliy the closest is a 4 hour drive to ATL. I'm not too familiar with EGT tuning although i have heard its great but I'm just schetchy on that. I want to use a good A/F gauge like the Greddy one. its either that or a cheaper aka.autometer a/f with a pyrometer also I know most of you will say both teh a/f and egt but remember i don't like egt's so tell me your thoughts or any other a/f gauges that might work well....I've also thought of a Halmeter, the SDS meter and a split second meter but i just can't make up my mind.....any opinions here?

well I dont' have the cash for a wide band. I'm in Asheville NC BTW. The cheapest wide band I've found is 600 bucks for it all and thats a little more than I want to spend. The Greddy A/F is as close as you can get to a wide band without getting one.....it reads from 16:1 to 8:1 a/f ratios accuratly with its own dedicated o2. Thoes are all the a/f ratios I need i dont' need to see if i'm runninf 40:1 when I shift.
