You need to compare features of that WMS and the LM-1 before you pay that kind of money for a wideband that will only give you a real time display. Data-logging is the way to go. If you plan to tune with this thing, then it's pretty hard to remember AFR curves vs. rpm in your head while driving down the road. hehe

Edit: Find a meter with RPM logging capability.

Not too sure what Daggar is talking about, but the WMS unit does datalog with a laptop. My brother has this wideband and it works quite well. It does zero out now and then for no reason but overall it's pretty good.

What is the rpm converter and what do you do with this?

Its an optional part that come with the LM-1.

Daggar is talking about a unit that for the same money, data-logs all by itself (the LM-1). It's also got the capabilty to use the RPM converter so that when you read your logs back, you can see which part of your power curve you need to adjust air to fuel ratio in. Having a wideband display or data log with no reference to where in your power band, your mixture is lean or rich, is pretty useless if you intend to use that data for the purpose of tuning.
