Default Timing Chain Tensioner noise? Help Please

Hi guys,

Just wondering if this noise is the TCT? Or anything worse? Just wondering where I need to start.



Thanks in advance.

TCT noise is very distinct. I can’t seem to hear it over that supercharger noise. So I would say No.

There is no specific TCT noise there.

-From full operating temperature, shut the car down and let is sit for 5 full minutes
-Position the camera 6 feet away from the nose of car and 6 feet off the ground
-hit record and get the starup video

Valve adjustment is always the best starting point, for many good reasons.
