Re: Anyone have experience with this AF gauge?
In general, Nordskog is pretty good.
However, some of my friends run that (or that type) of gauge in their f-bodies and fox-bodies. Its not a whole lot more than "pretty lights". No narrow band setup can give you the accuracy to properly tune an engine with. It basically just says, yes you are lean, or yes you are rich, but doesn't really say how much and if its "dangerously" rich/lean. Go with an EGT or take the dive and get a wideband O2 setup. EGT is roughly $130, wideband starts at something like $500, and can easily go over $1k if you get something like a professional (race) wideband+box.

On the new VW and Audi's they are a 5 volt O2. If Sameers checks the wiring
coming from the O2 and finds that its 4 wire than it should be 1 volt. 5 wire 02 are generally 5 volts. Being that Sameer is 99.5 it could be one or the other.

The only reference to VIN/Year splits I could find was if the car has an AEB or ATW engine code. And actually, the ATW O2's comes up as "unknown" when dbl clicked...

i have a cyberdyne one. looks the same
5 bucks cheaper from jcwhitney.
i've read that regular o2 sensors like these will not work on 1.8t because they have higher voltage 02s
