Default Weird noise? Is it the injectors?

Can anyone help me diagnose what this noise is? Listen at 0:17 & 0:28, right after the rev settles down to idle.

Kinda sounds like the a radiation meter. Should I be worried? (Not about radiation, but about my injectors )

Hmmm.... I haven't done the TCT fix. Is it easy?

I listened to all sorts of TCT videos online... all of them sounded a little more serious than this, but this could be the start of it... who knows.

For myself I just pulled the Worm Gear (See the guide) and Sanded it with some 220grit. Then Re-install... Took maybe 15 min?

ive listened to alot of TCT vids and yours doesnt sound like it.....thats sound is kinda concering(not to freak you out)..

but right now i got nothing for you, i cant think of anything?
maybe do a valve adjustment?
how many miles are on your car?
do u drive the shit out of it alot? if you do maybe you hurt a cam?
i cant say what it is, but all i hope is that mine doesnt start to sound like that.

When you solve the problem let me know, im curious as to what it may be.

i can hear injectors and maybe a little valve noise. nothing to really worry about. might just need a valve adjustment but other than that i dont really hear anything bad

Thanks for your input guys. I do drive the car hard occasionally. I just took out my vortech and went back to stock, so now I'm able to hear noises like this without a big rattling paint can in the way.

'Bout time for a valve adjustment I suppose. I'll keep an eye on it!
