I have to get rid of this noise, its like a ticking noise that does not get faster with rpms, it gets louder. first i tought it was the wasetegate, but nope i took it off ( it was a pita by the way) but the noise is still there, I have the hks t04r full turbine kit... i think that is what it is called. any help will let me sleep at night. im thinking of bringin over my charger if i cant get rid of this noise. thanks in advance

Ok the car its a JDM 92 r1 . the ticking its constant, does not change with rpms and it only gets louder when the car is on load. the noise comes from where the twins used to be arround that area. other then that the car is great lots of power, running REAL rich right now.
Fuel injector?
Try using an automotive stethoscope to isolate where the noise is coming from.

Sorry it took so long to post but anyways, I replaced the primaries back to the stock injectors, and the ticking still there, I'm begining to think it's the turbo making this noise..... but damn! the turbo kit was brand new.
nah averithing is tight i checked last night on the lift, maybe my engine is going. who knows, anyways another question: i got a hold of a pair of mazdaspeed seats, but i think the rails are from a fc, so... where can i get a set of rails for those seats but for an fd? thanks in advance.

What? How do you get that your engine is going, from a ticking noise coming from the engine bay. Contrary to popular belief, these cars are not ticking time bombs, lol.

lol...I always think the worst when I hear a noise like that too.
I dint think it is knocking the pfc allways shows 1 to 4 on the knock monitor, im just tired of this noise it makes the car sound like it is a beat up POS. but it is not. i refuse to believe that. I dont want to go to R-magic because they are EXPENSIVE!!!, and it turns out to be something simple.
yea actualy thats a great place to start. exhaust leak!i just wen't through the problem and finaly got it almost squared away but i still have just a bit of a leak just enough to drive me insane,i know where its coming from though.where the exhaust pipe matches the header,it has a bit of a leak right there and it sounds like its off the passenger side of the engine bay right where ur turbo is.i got it quieted up ALOT but unfortinitly its still there.check it out,im sure it's that stupid.
I checked everything under the car,maybe I need to take the turbine out and see if the gaskets aren't blown. Boy that is going to take another weekend!
