Is this whine the walbro fuel pump?

Recently I've started to get this wierd whine comming from the back of my car. I got in the back seat and put my ears on the floor and it sounded like a RC Whine. I can only hear it in idle, and BARELY( if I try hard) hear it in first and second gear..if i go faster I hear nothing.

Just making sure it's not the T-case or Tranny...I've read about the death whine and it scares the crap out of Me.

My 255 is soooo loud. But I guess you should expect such things when modifying a car.

you can offset this sound by either louder exhaust, turn up your radio or cruise around @ 6000rpm

LOL... mine does that too!

The first day I thought that was electical noise thru the stereo. I felt embarrassed when I started to troubleshoot the problem and found out that it was the FP. JEJEJEJE!
