Wow... didn't know you were going with a wideband! Excellent choice! You can get that A/F dialed in to a gnat'* ***....

Do you think the missing piston will throw off that WB O2 data, or am I going to be ok?

The interesting thing.......

The wideband O2 gauge didn't come from Cyberdyne. But it matches perfectly. I've traced both the Cyberdyne and O2 gauges back to a company in Germany that makes both gauges (nearly certain on this).

4 gauges are:

Wideband O2 (with PC logging)
Voltmeter (replacing my old one)
Trans temp (replacing my old one) with memory
Boost/Vac with memory.

I may never know for sure what boost I was running last year with the 2.0" pulley, as I intend to run (by design) no smaller than the 2.2" this year, but I'm still off the scale of the factory gauge.
