Re: Wideband O2 sensors NGK AFX v's Innovate LC-1 v's AEM

I have the AEM digital gauge in my falcon, the tuner said it was 1-2 units out compared to his Autronic AFR meter on the dyno. :?

BTW an Autronic gauge is $1800 :idea:

A J3 chip will support the smartlock removal and in some instances you can use a manual trans tune in the chip. When inserted the ECu runs off the J3 chip not the internal tune. I have the software to tune these realtime, then write to a J3. It enables other issues to be fixed due to missing ...

Go to super cheap and see if they have had any compressors returned for warranty. I have heard that they sell the tanks cheap for the returns. Around the $20 - $30 mark maybe.

Nothing to lose trying.

Another great option!! Especially considering the size of the tanks on the smaller compressors ...
