I put the old cartridge back in the housing and the pressure is better and the noise went away. Sounds like it is the wrong part, or it is defective. Plan on contacting the mfg. this week.

I purchased the repair kit mentioned earlier in this thread and tried to replace mine that leaks but am having new problems: The gauge now shows the pressure is very high, the valve now makes an makes an 'airy' noise when water is on, and when multiple faucets are on the pressure gets really low...

I am referring to the pic you posted. Thanks for confirming and look forward to figuring out what it is.
