i think post cat screws it up even more, im not even sure you can get accurate readings with all the moisture in the mixture after a cat
For real.. if I ever walked into a place and they said they knew "approximately" what AFR was, I would tell them to shove thier dyno directly up thier ***.

Dyno time is expensive out here, and that money should not go to "approximate" tuning. I can "approximate" on the ------- street. Geeezzz..

I actually did testing with my PLX against my shops wideband and it was .4 off of the dnyojet sniffer, and also was .4 off a innovative I also use. So I normally tune to around 12.2-12.3 so I am around 11.8 with my wideband. It is funny, because I tune most things to around 11.8 on the street, then come into a warmer environment in the dyno room and it reads leaner.. haha... but yea, you can get the feel of how far "off" the dynos wideband is, but atleast you are tuning safer with it.
