Default Digital WUR??????

I have heard that somebody is making digital WURs now. Does anybody have info on these WURs and where they are made? Is there a website about the digital WUR?

I am thinking about getting a Brain Leask adjustable WUR, but want to research all the alternatives.

The digital WUR is new, so I would not expect it to be as reliable as manual adjustments like the Leask model, but I am just guessing.

This one sounds interesting;

I tried getting more info from them. No luck though (they weren't very responsive).

Neil Harvey of Performance Developments made one a year or so ago I believe.

WTH is this ? This is nothing like what Neil Harvey made. The one Neil Harvey made or was making had to be adjusted using a PDA. Basically it was fully adjustable and even sensed engine RPM.

Unless you can get one from Neil Harvey I would stick with the brian Leask one and the RPM switch setup that he can help you build.

I would bet that this is the unit that Turbokraft has been promising to be available soon.

I'm a little nervous about the full time fuel preseure gauge on there. I'm still saving my pennies to go EFI though.

I emailed Unwired Tools....the manufacturer of this adjustable WUR...and they advised that this unit will sell for $599 plus shipping.

Here's the explanation given to me based upon my questions about this device:
________________________________________________________________________ __-

Thank you for your inquiry. Our UTCIS-A sells for $599 USD. The tuning is done by you with our unit installed on your car. You use a needle valve to adjust your control pressure to your liking. The unit comes with a pressure gauge so you do not require a CIS gauge set to adjust your control pressure.

The UTCIS-A also has a vacuum sensor for providing additional, temporary enrichment during acceleration.

For the money, I've decided to go for Brian's adjustable WUR. Plus Brian said that his solenoid kit should be ready for shipment in about two weeks, and that he's considering offering a "two-fer" discount if you buy both....but don't take my word for it...you'd better contact Brian for those particulars.

WOW...that's interesting, indeed! I'm a L-O-N-G way off from EFI, so this might be a good thing. I'd like to know more. I remember Turbokraft was working on something, but I never saw it...

What does the Leask unit go for? Is it comperable in function to the U.T. unit?

Leask unit is about $300, with a manual adjustment for hot and cold start, and full throttle and regular throttle. Four adjustments.

The Leask manual adjustment sounds like a nice add for wur fine tunning. Adding the RPM switch would be a bonus. Might be stretching to call it "digital" though....

Modifying pressures electronicly w/ the UTCIS sounds promising. I'm with 930rocket though, $599 is too steap. I'll continue saving for EFI...

As DDD said there are four adjustments with Brian Leasks WUR, compared to one on the UTCIS, so IMO it is not even an option for a modified car.

Nathan, I've been trying to look into this product but their website didn't have much info that I could find, it wasn't loading right.....

Do you know anything about the product's price and what adjustments it has, and so on?
