If it's from Hong Kong, I wouldn't bother.

To get this right you need a proper wideband sensor, and a decent controller / gauge.

As above, you need something decent with a Bosch LMU wideband lambda sensor. Depends what you like really. You're looking at about £130-160 for a lot and that's mainly dependant on the gauge it's self. I've got a PLX DM6 and it's fantastic but AEM are also good.

Same as Niall I have the PLX DM6 and its great. Its a touch screen and will produce a live graph and max and min etc. Its a great gauge and you can attach more sensors to it to display other values.

I run an AEM wideband on my Turbo'd MX5 and it's a great little piece of kit.
There's quite a few makes out there that are also very good.

Generally if you gauge looks like this, it's utter shit:
