I'm making some where in the high 400's...
No idea its making a rattle noise after 2k rpm when I rev it. I drove it home limping in 5th at 38mph to prevent the rattle from being loud. Drove the baby home 28miles home...
Okay so i popped the vc off and upon thorough inspection the head looks fine, nothing broken or missing, drained the oil and no surprises or particles. Took the TCT cover off and i might have found the problem maybe, i hope thats it doh..
I leave ya'll with a vid of the TCT in action and a picture of how the car sits till me new TCT arrives from my tuner.
How loud is the rattling? Is it coming from the timing chain area? It could be chain slap.Originally Posted by monjarassi

its pretty loud around 2-4k rpms when i rev it at idle its quiet as stock.
The noise comes from the head
Today i removed the timing chain tensioner and might have slight wear, ya be the judge.
Just to save the headache heres my tuners conclusion of the wear!!

im afraid now that there might be some bent valves!!!
I have a very similar noise. I get a loud clicking noise from the passenger side of the top of the engine. Pretty positive mine is just chain slap. How loud is the rattling?
