The infamous tick?

Do all stock evo injectors tick? or only when u get after market injectors?

Mine is stock and has a ticking sound. I also used to have a mazda 3 that also ticked. I think it's just the way these new fangled cars are these days.

Every fuel injected car i've ever worked on ticked to some degree.

The evo does seem to have slightly louder than normal lifter noise once i put in these GSC s1 cams I'll let you guys know if bleeding out the lifters helped .

My lifters were bled and they sound fine. I really don't hear a tick with my stock injectors.
