So I know the SCT Livewire can monitor AFR, but I'm assuming it would need a wideband sensor welded into a bung on the exhaust to do so like a normal wideband? Or can it detect that from the OBII port alone? I would think it would need a sensor but I couldn't find any info on it on the SCT site....

I tried setting up the Livewire for AFR, it was too much of a pain in the ass. After I made the proper firewire harness, the livewire needed a specific AFR formula to display properly. I talked to my tuner, posted here, and called SCT, couldnt get a formula for it. The guage looks better anyway...

You need a sensor and a "brain" such as the LC1. I've had my LC1 for about 4 years now and it still works great with my Livewire. The Livewire has the correct formula built in for the LC1. All you have to do is select it.

Here is the analog equation I use on my Autometer 4378 WB

0.06803*(10+1.5*v)

With my Dynojet Wide Band Commander, you use 0.068306*(10+1.6*v) in the analog1 equation
