Default Electronic Clicking or Ticking front Under the Hood

My 2015 GT has a strange electronic clicking or ticking noise coming from under the hood. I noticed it with the window down in a drive-thru. I thought it was the A/C compressor turning on and off, but I have the climate control turned off. I’m fairly certain it’s not mechanical like valves. The only mods are a cat back exhaust and a tune. Thoughts? Thanks!

does the 15 have direct injection? Those types are louder... does it rise and fall with RPMs?

It ticks faster as the engine RPMs increase, but it’s not a direct correlation, or said another way, the ticking does not exactly match the RPMs, the sound is more intermittent.
