Pump £121 delivered... http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-BOSCH-044-FUEL-PUMP-NEW-...

wiring upgrade is just some 20-30amp wire (about 2 meters of each is plenty.
Fuse and holder and a relay...about a £10 for all the bits.

The wiring upgrade is a doddle, you only need a relay, an in-line fuse holder, a couple of short lengths of decent cable and some decent quality connectors - all in, less than a tenner.

FPR is non adjustable on the Noble. Some have changed to a proper adjustable FPR's.

Is this worth the upgrade for a standard GTO-3?

Wiring...yes, fuel pump...no.



The 044 is a loud b*stard compared to standard.

Probably not unless your looking to upgrade exhaust etc for more power.

When do you tend to hear it, is it usually when the car is idling or is it noticable all the time? If noticable all the time is there any alternative or any way of reducing the noise?
