High pitch sound in cabin

I notice at night when I get home from work when im cooling down the car, I hear a high pitch sound inside the cabin. Like its inside my head. But once I turn it off it goes away. Turn the ignition to ON( I dont crank the car on) it comes back. What can it be? I looked around but I couldnt find the source of the sound. My mods are exhaust, hyperground & ignition, AEM analog boost, and digital A/F.

Thanks

Remove your backseats and put your ear close to the fuel tank/pump assembly. If that's where the noise is then it's your fuel pump. Nothing to worry about. In fact, if you get the Walbro 255, it's going to get a little louder.

Just remember Evos are far from luxury (besides the seats), so get use to annoying rattles and noises.

Your girlfriend in the trunk maybe...

Probably your fuel pump but try to move around the cabin to see if its coming from the back or the front. You could also be getting an electrical whine from your radio... is it the stock radio?

Next time wrap your head in aluminum foil and listen if you could hear it.


I'll go with the fuel pump too.
