Is there a flex section anywhere in your exhaust? If not, it's probably because most of the engine vibration is being transfered to the car body through the solid exhaust and welded on hangers. Mine has no flex section, and has the same symptoms.

Now for the fuel pump.. They're loud. Are you losing fuel pressure? Does it start hard now?

Check the install on it, and check that it is sealing well in it's housing.

Off the top of my head i'd say no, but i've always had an exhaust.. I do think i remember mine getting louder after a while, though.. maybe 2-3 weeks of having the turbo.
