WIDE BAND AFR FAILSAFE

What do you think of this.Have an Innovate wide band with fail safe.
I am thinking my options are tying into the fuel pump or throttle body to shut down engine during the long runs. Would be hidden from view and programmed to come on at say anything over 12.1 afr and under boost. So anything over 12.1 ....engine shuts down. Had this on my Nitrous cars years ago but nothing like an E55. Great for any kind of "lean out" condition under boost.

I would try to look into tying it into the super charger clutch instead of shutting the car down.
