walbro 255 noise
i know i need the walbro 255 for my mods and higher boost but does it really make a lot of noise? I heard it whines? Is it loud or do people make a big deal about it?

It is audible...to what degree seems to be weather-dependent, with hotter weather being more noisy...

sometimes it's louder than others, but not really to an annoying extent.

Again, it's a hit and miss. Some are loud and some (like mine) is mousey-quiet most of the time :}
