We offer a U.S. made pump for $99 which is a direct replacement for the
Bosch and has proven to be just as reliable. It does not require
modification (other than terminal ends if your do not currently have ring
terminals) and is far better quality than the cheap Chinese ones out there.

That being said, diagnose your fuel system first. A loud pump is often a
symptom of a blockage somewhere - rust in the lines, a crimped line, clogged
filter, etc. If that is the case and you do not resolve it, you will only
damage a second pump.
