    Well the best of best wideband would cost you either several hundred dollars or upwards of 1-2k atleast.

    Your budget can come into play here too, some like AEM, some like Innovate, autometer. Alot of people do prefer a sensor you can calibrate.
    2016 Silverado CCSB 5.3/6L80e, not as slow but still heavy.

    If you don't post your tune and logs when you have questions you aren't helping yourself.

    If you only need it for tuning purposes and do not want to be bothered with gauge, then this is for you:
    http://www.summitracing.com/parts/av...FUQ2gQodHZkPNw
    It will drive your wideband sensor and give you a 0-5v output for you to log with. Then if you really wanted to display your afr on your dash, you could buy this:
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/AEM-30-2310-...ZTKX-u&vxp=mtr
    And still be within your $300 target. AEM uses bosch 4.2lsu sensors that never require a free air calibration. whatever sensor you go with at the start of logging, you should compare sensor to your switching narrowband to verify accuracy.

    Because narrowband sensors are always accurate on modified vehicles right? GTFO.

    OP go pick up a Ballenger Motorsports AFR 500.

    I use the AEM Failsafe Wideband. I always find their products to be very accurate and the nice failsafe model is a added plus too. You can set it to shut off your car, pull timing, or run on wastegate pressure if it see's an unsafe AFR
