Is it any good? I'm looking for speed and accuracy compared to other wideband on the market. I have all autometer silver faced gauges and would like them to match.

AFX is probably one of the best.

I don't have exact dimensions but you can make it fit nice in the dash with some fab work.

The AFX box is around 2-3/4" wide, 1-1/4" tall and 3-1/2" deep but it also has a big connector on the back that sticks out about another inch with a fat cable coming out of it. The readout on the box is pretty big a bright, if you can figure out somehow to mount the box in the dash somewhere it would look pretty good but on my 2002 I don't really see anyplace to do that. I've just been velcroing it to the top of the dash for now, it looks like a science experiment. I went with the AFX as they are often considered the most accurate and reliable. Someone also mentioned that they don't have to be periodically calibrated like the Innovate ones but that's not the case, you do have to calibrate these ones also.
