Noise from Walbro 255lph pump?

[1DangerousV6]

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??

i dont have one so sorry but from a few post i have read about them, its pretty load. not like your exhaust though ;)

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.

awesome..my exhaust is DAMN aftermarket and loud..thanks guys [img]smile.gif[/img]

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

as long as its not like my freakin MSD inline one..anything you can hear over my exhaust is WAY too loud lol..im just gonna put a toggle switch on it and log how it holds up..if it doesnt..then this is going to be what i go with [img]smile.gif[/img]

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.

^ yup..just like running my current inline pump..doesnt effect my economy at all..just allows my to lay the smack down :D
