Lambda (or stoichiometric ratio) is 14.7. So I wrote it wrong. sorry. So if you reading 14.0, then that indicates rich I think. Search for 'stoich' on this forum as I know there are scads of discussions on it.
go here to read a bit about A/F ratio. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-fuel_ratio I can follow emsvitil, but not sure about SprungSonde as he writes as if english in not his/her 1st language. I cannot decipher his acronyms.

OK. I get what emsvitil is saying now.
Ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_converter The 1st part of the cat does the NOx reduction "# Reduction of nitrogen oxides to nitrogen and oxygen: 2NOx → xO2 + N2" So does this mean that even if your running at perfect stoich ratio (14.7) that the wideband is going to read lean do to the oxygen created by the 1st part of the cat? I would think yes.

Well im not sure about the AEM gauge but the one i have has 2 extra analog outputs. Analog 2 is setup for data logging to the SCT programmer. The analog 1 is setup to trick the ECU into thinking the OEM 02 sensor is still running normaly. The voltage can be adjusted also. Maybe it can even fool the ECU?
Soon as the weather clears up around here im going to try both locations.
