Default Re: Worlds most powerful D5/655 pump

Hi, I am very interested in this mod. I am using a D4 which looks mostly the same inside except for different PCB's. It makes a very annoying high pitch niose Id also like to stop.. that they fixed on the later versions. I was thinking about buying a new pump but at £50 I decided not to. replacing the speed controller seems to be a much better idea.
I would also not need to use a linear regulator to slow down the pump.

Do I need anything else to make it work?

I have opened up my pump, and found it has two PCB's unlike the D5 you showed. The one connected to the windings is plain with no components, instead just the connections to the windings. The other pcb is the speed controller. Here are some pictures
