I am just wondering if anyone has tried the autometer wideband set up yet. I am thinking of getting this unit and want to know if it is a decent product or not. I will be getting hptuners in the very near future and want to make sure that I don't buy something that will be a pain in the ass.
Can't see anything wrong with it... :D
If you get one, give us feedback.
Eg: ease of installation, accuracy, portability. etc..
The Autometer WB pid is not listed in the scanner, so you would need to configure a user defined enhanced input.

Well from what I am finding out, it seems no one can get them yet. I tried to get info from Autometer about this unit, and they can't even help yet. If I end up getting this I will see what happens.
u try summit or jegs?
I haven't had a chance to call them. I did call a local performance shop and they have the gauges on back order. They haven't been able to get the gauges or any info yet either.
You don't need a gauge, as the data will be displayed in the scanner charts & histograms.

uh oh, I have one now. and I didnt think there would be a problem as the info from autometer said it is able to download to tuning software. hope someone has experience. I dont think it would be much of a problem, but I am uncomfortable that is not tried at this point.
note: I dont have HPTUNERS yet to try it. will have shortly though.
Custom PID is .6666 + 10 as the output is 0-4 volts from 10 to 16 AFR
4/6 + 10 is the formula.
Autometer has 2 things going against it so far. 0-4 volt output and the most incredibly annoying wideband "feature" yet. A 20 second delay after you start the car before you get any wideband data. Because of that I rate the Autometer with an "F+" for tuning usefullness.
Ohhhhhhhhhhh, good to know. Thanks guys. I was talkin with Russ and I'm going to put the FJO in mine, and their Canadian too!!
Well shit I just went rice when I didnt know it LOL. I guess I have pretty lights now moving forward.LOLQuote:

I do understand your point. there are loggers you can use that is just temporary in the car and can be used in other cars. once you do it right then why monitor it. I guess I just want piece of mind right now.
Was there an update to this?Quote:
