Originally is was way louder which is why I went ahead and swapped it with Billmans upgraded TCT, which made a huge difference.

I would double check your valve clearances mate, did you do them yourself ?

I would also be more inclined to say Valve clearances, TCT's tend to exhibit an inconsistent rattle.

Had a local shop do the valve adjustment as it wasn't something that I felt like tackling myself. I'll probably let my friend take the car to the Honda dealer as he's a tech there to check out the work that was done. Thanks for your responses!

Pull the serpentine belt and see if it goes away, that sounds like the tensioner to me.
