here are some logs i pulled off the car if it helps, thanks.

ign advance (9/12)
knock retard (0.0)
learned knock retard (100%)
intake cam adv (10/11)
maf (g/s) (3)
boost pressure (-9.4/-8.8)
load boost/fuel (29/30)
load timing (19/20)
load limp mode (19/20)

im a currently running aem intake, hks bov, greddy se exhaust and ecu reflash to cobb ap aem 91 stage1.. this ticking noise has been going on like this before i bought the cobb ap.

any help would be greatful, thanks again.

I guess there is something loosen in the engine making this ticking noise while the pistons are moving under (almost) no load on idle.

Mine does it too. The first few times I heard it, I almost freaked out. I've gotten use to it by now and just dont worry about it.
