Who has Beans EFuel kit?

Who's running the beans efuel kit? Had mine installed on my 97 and it makes an annoying buzzing sound coming from the pump area? Called beans they said that's normal but it's pretty loud. Is everyone's kit do this? Thanks

The pump should have more of a hum than a buzz

I guess you could call it a humming sound. Maybe this is normal for this pump just I notice it more than others cause my pump is mounted on the outside frame rail under my seat.

You'll hear the pump more when you're sitting on top of it.

I have the bosch 044 pump version. It is noisy but I can't really hear it over the engine noise in the cab with the windows shut. Outside of the truck it is pretty noticable. Mine is mounted on the inside of the frame rail.

Its loud, you could mount it different if you want it quieter but its really not a big deal.
