When you say "wide band 02 Sensor Gauge", is this what you mean?

Apexi SAFC Air Flow Converter from AlamoMotorsports

Also, if you use this "wide band 02 Sensor Gauge", do you still need to get the ECU reprogrammed? Tuning is fairly new for me.

When you day you melted... with the kit, do you mean the SC kit or Apexi?

So from what I am hearing here, the resistor is s hack and the wide band sensor gauge is a better solution. Am I correct in that?
