So did injectors and wetzel wheel about a month ago. Truck drove great and sounded amazing with no injector knock and the new wheel sounds great! I have put about 800 miles on the truck and the other night the lady and I where headed out and nailed it getting on the highway to pass the idiots doing 40 on a 75 and once it hit high rpm it started making a loud ticking noise. The noise almost sounds like when a gas engine is detonating. It will only do it under high rpm and full (25psi) boost. High rpm and light load it sounds normal and low rpm full boost it sounds normal. Anyone have any ideas what it could be??? Injector rates still look great and just driving normal it sounds good. Only thing I can think it might be is up-pipe flange gaskets. Thanks in advance!!!

my injectors are alot louder then my old worn out stockers, seems to be that way atleast. Wouldnt you be able to see the combustion come up past the injector and in the valve cover...pull oil cap and look for excessive blow by?
