Rattle/ticking sound above 4000 rpm

More info. I always use 93 octane gas. Yesterday I added a can of octane booster. Maybe this info will help

I would get the car up in the air if possible to see if something is loose like the exhaust manifold shields. Is the ticking noise at the same pace as the rpms?

Seems as the rpms climb so does the tick. In park while maintaining high rpm its silky smooth
Ticking is while in a hard high rpm pull while driving. Mainly on drivers side

If the tick is in sync with the rpms, I would use ester oil for your next oil change to help quite down the vvel noise.
