Ticking Sound Under WOT?
Yesterday my car started making a weird ticking sound while under WOT. The sound is really noticable and gets faster as the RPM's go up. I tried searching and the only thing I could find was that it might be some sort of exhaust leak? Unless it's comming from the headers I think thats impossible since my exhaust is completely welded together. Any input?
Thanks in advance

It sounds like a taser really, theres no sound when I'm just revving, only when I'm in gear. In 1st you don't hear it much but it's much more pronounced in 2nd and beyond.

Increase your octane or decrease your timing. No more WOT until you get it straightened out. 430hp? What setup do you have?

I just realized it might actually be the gas, I filled up just before the problem started, always 93 octane but might have been a bad batch though
