Was that all that was done? Is it possible your feed and return lines to the fuel rail are crossed? Can you give some more info on the slight noise? When you turn the key from acc to on, iirc, it should turn on the fuel pump for 2-3 seconds. You may be able to listen yourself kneeling beside your car, just turn off the air and radio before you start or anything that makes noise. Get back with info as to whether or not it is priming when turning the key.
