No it's not the injectors. See video: YouTube - 370z-ticking.m4v

It's so distinct it sounds like it's an outside tapping noise that's not coming from the motor. Sad to say, it most definitely is coming from the motor. Almost sounds like a car key tapping on glass. It can't be good...

My mods are Stillen G3's, HFC's, catback and uprev tune. I don't think anything will be an issue other than the custom tune in regards to warranty work. Should i have uprev flash it back to stock and remove the uprev software before taking it to the dealership?

Opinions on the noise?
