AEM Wideband UEGO Controller Gauge GOOD OR BAD???
Wednesday, August 08, 2007 11:41 PM
I've been reading on different places and i read that this AEM wideband gauge isnt good, sometimes it stuck, and its not accurate... anyone on the org own this and how does it perform?

What other wideband would you guys suggest? and maybe links to buy it please...

Thank you!

I've had my UEGO for almost a year and a half and never had a problem with it. I used it on my turbo ohv last summer and its been on my supercharged eco since last october. I have no complaints, it does what its supposed to and its not all that expensive.

mine's a pos. It reads right, and then spikes to all the way lean, and stays there. Then it'll bounce to where it should be for a second and bounce back to all the way lean again. Not sure what the problem is.

I highly doubt the problem has anything to do with your AEM UEGO W/B.

I've used one for over a year now and it has worked fine.

but if my car was pegged all the way lean under ull boost, my pistoms would be in little pieces by now.

I just haven't had the chance to take it to the shop to have them plug their wideband in.

I had mine for 15 months (way out of warranty) and the display went out. I contacted AEM and they had me send it back, instead of fixing the gauge they just sent me a new one and all I paid was shipping. Now probably another 15 months later I have no complaints. I was impressed enough with their customer service I recently picked up AEM's boost gauge/controller.

The local WRX/EVO shop I dyno my car at sells multiple brands, but the AEM is their most popular and most recommended WB.

You have one of the early gauges then. All of the ones ordered through Gravana, and most high inventory turnover places, have the newer style. The new style's LED read to 10.0.

Innovate is pretty badass but a little complicated to get running and more options than 1 person needs. No experience with PLX, not sure many ppl here use it.
You used to be able to read the full article without registering, but now you have to to see the 2nd page. It had some good info. http://www.fordmuscle.com/archives/2007/06/WidebandShootout/index.php

I use NGK's Powerdex, and it seems to work well. I haven't seen many others using it though.
