It also likes to disappear(spelling) past the red for a few seconds when I go into neutral, then it pops back up. Normal Or No?
(my car wouldn't be quick next spring, just quicker than it is now...haha)

Your car should run rich when first started "cold" and there should be little if any o2 activity for up to a few minutes after starting, since the ECU stays in open loop(no o2 feedback) until warmed up.Once warmed up the o2 feedback kicks in, in which case the A/F gauge will start jumping back and forth.
