That sucks. I also only just realized its "not available" at summit

I would do a quick search to make sure it wasn't discontinued because it doesn't work very well...

If it works well, and does what you need, and you can't find it anywhere else, I say go for it.

By AFR gauge, did you mean that shut-off switch or a separate one for purposes of external monitoring/datalogging?

You may not need either if your tuner has a pro cable -- he can set the ECU to be extra aggressive in pulling timing at the first hint of knock, which should stave off catastrophe.

Plus, the ECU will still have a tuned target map to reference, so keeping AFR's in check shouldn't be something that needs constant attention.

That's great news. You just saved me the cost of the gauge, yes it was just going to be used for external monitoring. Yep I'm calling tomorrow to have it overnighted. I will google and check on its reliability.

Sorry to hear you had to go the expensive route. Keep us posted on how it works out.

After searching until my eyes started bleeding, I was able to find one sight that I hadn't seen before. There selling it for $180.00 if they have it, I won't know till tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Well I've made my last call trying to find the Zex and it's just not there. So I'm going to bite the bullet and spend the $400.00.
