Default Walbro Fuel Pump
Walbro makes a 255lph and 190lph fuel pump. I had a 255 in my other car and I hate how loud the pump is. My question is would the 190 be any quieter? Does anyone have this pump?

It may have just been your pump or the way it was installed because mine is quiet and has been for the past three years.....

The 190 is slightly quieter, but will still whine. Why did you get the 255? Get the Supra twin turbo fuel pump... made by denso, quiter, and only a bit more expensive.
