I wanna get a wide band but dont wanna spend too much cash. What is the cheapest one that will still give me good performance and accurate tuning and who would you recommend I get it from.

i did research and ended up getting the NGK with the upgraded NTK sensor for $365. i'll pm you where i got mine from. if you want the NGK with regular bosch sensor the same site has it for $260. not sure if a forum vendor has a better price than $260 for the NGK with bosch sensor. Since it is an odd shape i put mine on my steering column.
from what i read, the ntk sensor may be a little more accurate than the bosch, the ntk will last longer than the bosch, and the ntk will work better if you run leaded fuels for the track. i just put mine in a month ago and love it so far. the extra $100 for the upgraded sensor was worth it for my car even if i really didn't need it. that is what i have researched but others can chime in.
AEM or Innovative are good and cheap. It just depends on what you want. If your just going to be logging through software like Hptuners then the LC1 works great. If you want a display then the AEM or LC1 with display works good.

Go with the NGK but with the cheaper sensor. I've been using one for over two years now and it's always been super reliable and accurate.
If you are interested in guage options, check out PLX at www.plxdevices.com. There is no need to spend an extra $100 dollars on a different wideband sensor. I've been using mine for over three years now, on two different cars. They are extremely accurate and will last just as long as a normal narrowband sensor.
