Yea that is an astronomical price. Really we should be looking for a price range of $300-$350. I mean $710 for an in tank fuel pump. I think that we can all agree that the prices on the website are over streched. Although I will definatly say this, that is the best looking display I have ever seen for an onboard real-time O2 reader. If the price is around $450 which it should be I would consider purchaing it becauase if the nice display. Others out there that are in the $300 range have a simple generic display that should belong on something like a 1980 Apple computer to display its 5MHz operating speed . I don't see there being a problem with using it on our cars, nothing states that it must be run on a FI setup. But what we need to find out is if it comes with its own O2 sensor and if it reads in Narrow or Wide band, and if it displays in Narrow or Wide as well. Some sensors only read between a range that if we ever go off the scale that we would not be able to read what O2 ratio we are at, but at those points we would have already damaged out engines, thats if we run lean, those are narrow band readers. Vice Versa for the Wide band readers.

its a wide band air fuel monitor much better than autometer which is not in real time nor do you know where your at under any load conditions.its a guessing game with auto meter.yes the hks is expensive but so is your engine.

wait a year..the price will come down.. as all other electronic products... the autometer a/f gauge is real time isnt it?.. under heavy load it should display rich and under cruising condition it will bounce back and forth between rich lean rich lean..
