  • Noise from Walbro 255lph pump?

    im hoping to hear from a few people that actually have it..the rear of my car is stripped to a shell..no carpetting or anything..i can just make out the sound of what i assume is the factory pump..how much louder is the Walbro 255lph intank pump going to be??

        stock pumps = 155 LPH and that one = 255 LPH. does that cut your fuel economy in half? what does that mean?

          I have carpeting and stuff in the back and for the most part i can only hear it from outside of the car. Its quite a bit louder but its not like "omg wtf is that noise". Also, the open downpipe muffles a bit.

            I couldn't tell any difference when I put mine in. If you have a aftermarket exhaust you shouldn't notice it much.

                just sounds like a quiet hum coming from the back of the car... nothing serious, isnt like a fuel pump on a old small block where you can sometimes hear it over exhaust

                    I have one in my car and you actually have to listen for it to hear it. I would recommend it to you by looking at the mods I see in your sig.

                      cool..my only concern is that i'll hear it a bit more than most people because i dont have anything in my car from the front seats back..no carpet..nothing..just a metal shell [img]smile.gif[/img]

                        If you have nothing for insulation (carpet, etc.) it will be a little louder, but i still dont think it will be any louder than your exhaust.

                          no, you still have a regulator to control fuel getting to the fuel rails. it just gives you the option to have enough fuel going for bigger injectors and such.
