Fuel pump question?

Short but sweet question as I'm on my phone,
I was driving for about 1 n 3 quarter hours up to toowoomba and I noticed as I was driving up the range my fuel pumps 'whine' got louder. It already whines normally and I thought it was because it's an aftermarket performance one (Gavin told me it was replaced)..
Anyway I was just wondering if it gets louder is that a bad sign?
Cheers kustom_fto

Sure it wasn't the homo talkback AM radio you were listening to?

Nah, was whining and going with indicators as per usual but louder. I've yet to turn My car on so it might have gone.... When I got the car down I let it cool down a little and standing outside I could hear it pretty loud. Louder then usual

Does the noise go away when tank level i higher? Ive been in cars where the fuel pump whines when fuel is low.

Nah got a full tank of fuel.
But before I fueled up it was real low, to the stage of the light coming on.
