Need help to find out what is causing this noise
here is a vid clip of the noise
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PdYh3RcxgXc
here is the story, I originally had the sound that people have been complaining about in this thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...elt-video.html so took it to the shop and we replaced one of the tensioners. a week later same noise, took it back and the other tensioner was making the noise but had to be ordered so i drove off and bam, tensioner fails, timing belt skips teeth and in the end bent almost all the valves. Luckily no piston damage. Replaced all the valves with new Nitride coded and since I had the head off we replaced the cams with S1and upgraded the springs/retianers as well as a new cam gear. After all the work was retuned. Anyways so the car feels fine when im on the throttle and it gained another 30whp with the same boost, but now this noise just started to happen a week after all the work and im really paranoid since the head work and cam install set me back a pretty penny. Any ideas guys? thanks for the help!
Oh ya forgot to mention this noise as far as I can tell only happens at 1100 rpm.
