    when you turn the ignition to ON (not actually starting the car), does it make the same sound as your describing?
    If so, its the fuel pump.

    usually if it makes that much noise you got no petrol or its on the way out so if it stops one day and wont start again thats where id looked

    thats a interesting point, even if your car is turned off and your inside, should your pressure drop does the pump kick in auto maticaly to keep pressure up for you to start it next time?

    or does it pump up to pressure like crazy at start up,

    nope just primes at startup you shouldnt loose pressure anyway unless you have leaking injectors,regulator or leaky non return valve in the pump

    People are too obsessed with how much "power" their car makes....it doesn't make power, it produces torque, from which this mythical "power" figure is calculated.
