What lift pump?

I have ordered my high pressure pump so i'm now in need of a lift pump and if possible, I would like to stay away from the Facet pumps as they are noisy little mofos.
So what lift pumps are you guys using and/or what do you recommend? Also where did you get them?
Thanks

Im running a vl turbo high pressure pump with the vl lift pump. Im not sure on the noise side though as the lift pump hasnt run much yet but when it did i couldnt here much noise. And they seem to run turbo cars nicely.

The Commodore lift pump is a low pressure, high volume turbine pump. It's also nice and small too. All VLs use this pump, the sixes and walkingstick (walkinshaw, group A) as a lift pump, and the carby V8s as the only pump.

Nah sorry and it's a pain in the arse to get to. How urgent do you need to know? I'll be doing some work on the car in the next few weeks and can check then if you like.

hey man, i just got a new one for my car. will get details when i get home, how high do u need to lift? the one i use, sits in my boot, below the surge tank, it has 500mm of lift on the suction side and well in excess of approx 1m, on the pressure side. So if u need something like this i'll put up the name/model. If u need more lift though i cant help u. It cost me $120 i think if thats any interest to u.

hey man, mines a PIERBURG pump, there made in germany and imported through ASHDOWN automotive electrical parts, well thats where the place i got it from goes through. Just go to ur local high performance motorsport shop and ask them what they recommend. This one that i use, is quite, like u wont hear it under the boot carpert when the cars running. The last one i had that died not long ago was a noisy bugger, loud ticking noise constantly, not sure of the brand though.

feral4mr2; on the Ashdown sticker on the box, there is this;
There address (could be useful  ) 172 Crockford St, Northgate, QLD, 4013. After that in some big numbers what appears to be a part number.. 27-21441, and written below that, "electronic fuel pump, 12 volt 3.9 to 5.5 psi."
On the original Pierburg sticker, theres another number, 7.21440.51.0
Hope this helps, but it sure as hell doesent mean crap to me, all i know is that on the instruction leaflet, it stats that it can lift fuel from the suction side a minmum of 500mm, and well on the pressure side is anyones guess, but id say over 1m. The place i bought it from, Rampage autosport, sells a heap of them apparently, havent had 1 come back with a problem and sell about 1/2 of them as applications for lift pumps. Chris.
