what is a "wideband" going to do and how do i check it?

Re:air/fuel gage
 
A wideband is basicaly your a/f gauge, but 100x better and 500x more accurate. That way you can REALLY see what the a/f is like. I know the regular a/f gauges are junk, but it is a reference point. Plus I like all the pretty colors. :o J/K. :P

Also, you need fuel management of some sort. SOMETHING!!! and I don't think cruising down the road at 70 mph will create 1 psi. I read an article on this. I think it said you would have to be going like 230 mph for 1 psi. :(

dude, detonation is mainly caused by RUNNING LEAN. if it occurred while running rich, it would probably be the case that the octane rating was too low and pre-ignited for your compression ratio.

TURBO: RICH = SAFE, LEAN = BAD. ~12.5:1 = POWER. repeat this incessantly ;D
