Default a/f meter. whats it for?

i know lean is bad. i kinda know what the meter reads. the ultimate question however, is do i need an a/f meter to better tune/have my car tuned? is it absolutely necessary? i want to make n/a power out of my b20b, so tuning is exceedingly important. what do u guys think? waste of $? totally worth scoring one?

you dont have to have it, the tuner can tune with out it, but if you want to get it and hook it up so you can moniter your a/f ratio yourself then go for it, you also need a wideband o2 sensor

btw: i'm gonna try and come down there this weekend to get that ls motor and ill drop off ur wiper arms/blades/nuts
ill text ya and let ya know for sure

the tuner should have his own

I bought an a/f gauge and wideband O2 for my turbo project so that I will be able to monitor it.
