I have:
1999 GT
68,000mi
Vortech s/c w/ 8psi and a tb+plenum.
In the beginning of the week, i noticed when my car was parked next to another car while running, i coiuld hear the echo of a ticking coming from the engine. I thought it mught just be that i've never heard it before, so i didn't worry about it. Well it keep getting worse and worse until today, i can hear it clear as day while inside and it drowns out the s/c whistle and almost the exhaust. It goes away past 1500rpm but then comes back when the engine slows down. I noticed NO decrease in performance. I really don't have the money to have it fixed if it's more than a few hundred dollars, I'm a student. I did some searching and found it could be a wrist pin. I've never heard of that... Anyways, does anyone have any input on my situation and any routes I should take with it?
