I have no experience with a brake booster pump, but i've never seen a quiet vacuum pump. It is possible mounting the pump with better (softer) isolation could help with resonating vibration, but if it is intake noise in the pump itself, it might not.

Thanks, I was advised by the installer he could hook up the power breaks to the power steering pump, but likely would lose some efficiency, thus my comments on the sameness on the Cobish post. However in either case, hydraulic or air pump I am hearing some noise is the norm. tin-man
