Anybody use this (Fast dual A/F )

Any input would be grateful.

It has dual wide band capabilities.

I tried search (But you type in FAST in a lightning forum search and see how many hits you get)

Retail $600 YIKES... But I have seen it as low as $450

MORE FEATURES THAN COMPETING METERS
Beyond the innovative dual sensor capability, the new FAST™ Dual Sensor Air/Fuel Meter delivers several enhanced capabilities, in the easiest to use format of any digital air/fuel meter ever developed. One such capability is built-in data logging capability that plays back logged information on the lighted, full graphical display screen, unlike other units that require downloading to a computer. Additional standard features include outputs for external data loggers and digital gauges, and a narrow-band simulator function that allows you to feed your engine’s computer a factory signal while using the performance-oriented wide-band sensor for air/fuel measurement and adjustments.

Vinny, I done so much research on this meter and even bought a window mount for the control head but have yet to buy one, I have a garage full of parts to go in so I'll wait, but heres what I've learned, the unit is truly plug and play, the control head is large so other than a window mount your pulling the radio or doing a custom job-either overhead or center console. The unit has built in data logging and an outputs for data logging and 02 simulation mode, as you know to feed your OEM computer, however I was told this mode will not work on OBD2 by FAST, the unit can run a combined mode to average the reading or seperate right and left banks. The only thing about the gauge I don't like is the connector's that plug into the control head for the sensors and power are straight DB9's, read-large computer connectors, which make a large head even bigger, I tried to find a DB9 90 degree adaptors to help but there are so many available I figured I'd wait untill I had the gauge.

WOW TODD...

Great info. Thanks.

I want it more for the easy data logging and no computer is needed. I have no plans to have it in my face at the track.

Basically I need a dual sensor, wideband that gives me the info I need to tell my tuner what the truck is doing after a pass.

This looks like it would fill that.

What do you think.

Vinnie I installed 3 fast systems and they use the same O2s.A buddy of mine has the wide band by itself.I do know that it is accurate and it is instantanous on reading.the systems that I have installed show the a/f as it happens so I see now reason that just the meter would not do the same.Stan

Vinny, I really like this unit and I think it would be a solid fit for a race or street ride, for you with multiple blown rides think of this, buy two extra o2 sensors and the power cord and use the suction window mount for the control head and just move the control from ride to ride I don't know of another gauge that offer the features it does, the only shortcoming I see is the control size but I mentioned that, I'm going to put it in the left corner of the dash, I already swapped from a single pillar pod to a column pod for the boost gauge and I think with some more research I can find some black 90 degree DB-9 adaptors and drop the cables right down behind the dash for a clean look. Just a side note- 600.00 is full boat retail, I've seen the daul setup in the 450.00 range and I'm sure that can be beat.

You mean:

It is "too," not "to."
