if you hear that (in the other persons car especially if yours is running) when you're racing someone (at a track of course) you're probably gonna lose.

i had wahlbros in both my miata and my s2000...i smacked a bunch of cars down with both of them, but i got beaten once in the miata (by a C5 vette with some decent internal engine mods) and smoked once in the S2000 (by a 3000GT with big aftermarket turbos)

^ My ex girlfriends' parents had the fuel pump in their suburban go out like 3 times...

and yeah my Walbro is pretty loud... it sounds like my power antenna is constantly running

but even my friend who runs a Supra TT pump with Kenne Belle boost-a-pump maxed out isn't all that loud (of course the boost-a-pump only comes on when he drops the hammer)
