An A/F Ratio gauge (aka EGT) uses a wideband O2 sensor to get it's readings... what particular model are you looking at?

The OE O2 sensors are narrowband, wideband sensors are like $150+.

You should be fine then...

I don't know why anyone would want an A/F gauge if they aren't tuning, especially if they aren't using a wideband sensor, but to each his own. The narrowband sensor really only displays if you are running rich or lean, whereas a wideband will tell you how rich or lean multiple times a second.
