I don't want to get the car retuned until it's 100%. I was ready to get it tuned until the noise in the motor started on October 1st.

Your power of around 450-475 is great! I'd like a little more to fully utilize the potential in 3rd and 4th. It's too easy in those gears with 400 whp on tap

BTW, can you post footage of the sound with a light revving? Have you checked the oil content to see if there are any shavings?

Could be inadequate oil/oil pressure, lifters or VVEL system is failing.

May be from the high boost (highest for the vhr ive seen) and the VVEL system is breaking down from it??

could a bad head gasket cause you to lose oil pressure in the heads?

I hope you find the problem
