Default walbro 255lph fuel pump noise???

i finished putting in my walbro 255lph fuel pump. and a few seconds after starting the car.. all i hear is this loud screeching noise.. i've done research and i see alot of people have this issue and some dont..

Also this is my daily driver and i can't afford to keep the fuel tank full'ish at all times with gas prices today. What could go wrong if i drive on a low tank????

Is your car turbo? There really is NO need for a 255lph pump. I run the 190lph for an NA B18C5, and I probably didn't need that.

I took a 255 out of my car and went back to stock on my NA H22. the 255 is a good bit louder than the stock fuel pump, how loud is this 'screeching' noise?

no my car isn't turbo..
i have a b18c worked motor.. p73 Pistons\BC spec IV Camshafts\SK2 gears\Omni(springs\retainers\high compr.Valves)\hondataS200\ and 370 RC injectors

The reason i bought it is b\c my oem fuel pump died on me.. and it was only 100 for the walbro, i asked autozone and he qouted me for like 130 or more on a reg. fuel pump.
