Check the manual and get whatever one that it recommends. Or is it one of those guages that connects to your stock oxygen sensor? If so, return it. It is a narrow band guage. When trying to monitor your AFR, you really need a wideband oxygen sensor/guage. You can't just connect a wideband sensor to a narrow band guage. The readings would be useless. I'm personally saving up for the AEM UEGO. It is a very good looking compact unit. It also has a 1 volt output so that you can use it's oxygen sensor in the stock location. Others like the Innovate guage/sensor. BTW, I think that most of the aftermarket AFR meters use a Bosch sensor.

A wideband controller puts out a 5 volt signal. If you bought that controller, you would have to buy Innovate's wideband guage.
