That is a narrow band gauge, no use for trying to tune or monitor your engine I'm afraid.

You need a wideband lambda sensor in your exhaust, and a wideband gauge/controller to interpret the signal.

Look at innovate or AEM gauges.

It will entertain your passenger as he watches it go from lean to rich when you boot it. Depending on the tune of your engine, it might just show rich lol.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

More likely to be rich though. You would know if it was lean

If thats what you have got then a narrowband is much better than nothing. It will indicate a weak or rich mixture, you just wont know how weak or rich it is.

These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.
