    I only have a speedhut boost gauge but it is a very nicely made unit that hasn't had any issues at all.

    What sensor does speedhut use for their afr?

    Let me check on plug type and sensor. Maybe you can borrow /swap from my old zeitronix wideband I have sitting in a box. Not using at the moment. At least you can confirm your hardware is good.

    It hasn’t done it again, about another hundred miles.
    I’ll keep an eye on it.
    Thanks for the offer, I’ll let ya know I’d like to try it

    I couldn't tell you, but you are more than welcome to give it a shot. If you're going to make an omelette,you gotta break a few eggs right?

    Should be the title of this thread really. :laugh::bananadance:

    Boost, armor, lights, big tires, no savings.
    Am I the only one with PLX gauges? Been good to go for a few years now. I like the display options, Large Value *Text, not Test, active graph, or Min and Max.
