Looking at one of the stand alone kits for my f150. The truck its self is a 94 f150 302 with mass air. I have a 351w motor I'm building for it out of a 90s van its the 351w roller motor. It will have a c6 trans behind it so no worries on it needing to control a transmission.
My questions are which kit do I need to run the 351w in this 94 f150? Can I use the 302 wiring harness on the 351w with one of your pimpxs computers?
I have other questions also but this will get me started. Thanks for the help

If it's mass-air then it's also sequential which locks you into the PiMPxs that is also sequential.
You can use the 302 harness, though you may have to extend some wires depending on what intake design you use and where the sensors end up due to that design (coolant temp, air temp, TPS, idle air control).

What is all needed with the pimpsx kit? It has a few options. Do I need a wide band afr kit or is that just for peace of mind?

It's difficult to tune without knowing the air/fuel ratio so a wideband is highly suggested. Otherwise you only need the license. EGR delete flange too since you'll not be running EGR anymore. That's all, unless you need injectors or something for the larger engine (certainly can't run stock injectors).

Is the wide band just an o2 sensor that the computer reads and logs? I'm thinking of a Air fuel ratio wide band with the gauge inside the truck juat for my viewing. I don't need one of those if the computer is logging the info while driving for me to look at later. Or maybe I'm confused. I've dealt with the powerjection3 tuning before but not this one. Just assumed it was the same or close

A wideband setup is a kit comprising of a sensor and a controller (which controls the heater circuit, converts the digital signal to analog, etc.). It can have a gauge or not, doesn't matter to the ECU. What the ECU cares about is getting the AFR data from the wideband.
A stock o2 sensor is a narrowband which means it only reads air/fuel ratio at 14.7:1 and only knows whether it's leaner or richer than that, but not how much leaner or richer (which isn't really helpful when trying to tune). A wideband on the other hand reads accurately between about 10:1 and 20:1 ratio which means it provides vital data under all conditions and can be used for tuning under all conditions. New cars come with widebands.

In the drop down boxes for choosing extras with the pimpxs kit.
There is a spot for adding wideband o2 controller. I select spartan 2 with sensor and gauge and right below that in an other drop down box for is adding the perfect tuning gauge. Are these completely different?
Also do I need the air temp sensor? Or can I use the ford factory one?
