The way I look at it is that the sensors drift with age. Some controllers ignore that.

Not entirely true. Many brands have their own built in calibration routines, they don't ignore drift. Maybe not all, but I know PLX calibrates the sensor similar to how it's done as called out in post #12. And have a re-calibration routing built into the firmware It all comes down to how well engineered the controller firmware and sofware is.
 
5 of my friends use the AEM including me. No recalibration and only one sensor has went bad. I like them! When the one went bad it reasd like 14.8 A/F. This is a lean reading so wideband tracking systems add fuel, safe thing to do. You don't want one that reads rich because it will pull fuel and cause damage if the system allows enough to be pulled.

My PLX did exactly the same when the sensor died. After comparing the scanmaster numbers everything else was fine.
 
The AEM Uego wideband (uses a Bosch sensor) was easy to install and has worked perfect so far. Only cost $35 for a bung to get welded in. Bung comes in the package. I got mine from TurboTweak along with the 6.1 chip and powerlogger. When I researched which one to get, I went with what was easier to install and maintain.

been on TT site today looking at that set up and i like it a lot specially the put the controller anywhere part. Eric might get more of my money.

Out of the box on a 250 inch stroker it went 11.2 @ 121 with 20-23 psi and 10.5-10.8 on the wideband with alky and powerlogger all installed at the same time. Dynoed 491/600 to the wheels the next day after the track. The AEM Uego wit the TT 6.1 chip is really plug n play, except the powerlogger install, that took some patience and goo-gone, but was easy and an afternoon's work. I also would suggest the GNS 3 gauge pod that fits to the right of the dash, its a great spot for the wideband gauge at the top, which is where I have mine mounted.

No space for gauges i'll use the Scanmaster or PL to see the AFRs
6.1 and 60# are coming over the winter, i am just trying to nail things down for this coming track rental.
