Default Loud Injectors and loss of torque?

It's probably not related but I have theee LOUDEST injectors I have ever heard. At a stop next to other cars or along some other barrier the loud almost metronome like tick can match the decibel level of my SLP loudmouths at Idle.

So my first question is how can i get the ticking to stop!? Its driving me insane It never used to tick until my head on with a drunk driver.

Also i've noticed a loss of torque, I used to think it was all in my head but im not so sure anymore.. could there be a correlation between the two or is it something like my car telling me its time for a gear/clutch upgrade?

Please Help! I am losing what is left of my sanity

Sounds like bad gas is being used and maybe a bad injector
