Hi all,

For the short term I have an apexi neo that I will be using as my piggyback. I have used wideband setups before and have read about them here but am getting a few mixed answers which leads me to the following question:

In order to use a wideband and the neo for tuning- will it suffice to buy ONLY a bosch wideband o2 sensor like the one below and wire it to the neo? Or will I need a wideband gauge/translator as well?:

The other question I have pertains to the APEXI NEO vs the SAFC and SAFC2. I am aware of the criticism that the NEO only holds one map vs 2 for the SAFC. But other then that- what does the NEO lack that the SAFC2 does not lack? Knock monitoring? Or is it something else? Will the knock monitoring even apply to the 2g DSM's?
 
And now I have people telling me that safc1 and safc2 are better then the neo because of some features the neo lacks. I'm guessing I should just go with DSMLink and call it a day.
