to just sum it up, i just got the engine running corectly today after i had just bought a used(70000mile) bottom end for it. its all completely stock. ok now the bad news... my sis and i took the car around the block and boosted it alittle ,nothing over 4000rpm just to be safe everything seeemed fine... a few hours later we take it for a more heavy run and ran it though 1st and second gear(autotrans) and as we came to the stop sign we heard a loud ticking athough it still ran good. my problem is i don't have a clue to what is ticking(lifter???rod???trans???). i just need a tip in the right direction as to were to start looking. thanks.
I hope its nothing major because i need to get it back and running ASAP.

P.S it a 95 eagle talon TSI AWD auto.

It really could be anything. You need to open up your hood and see if you can at least give us a general area from where its coming from and then we can help you from there. If you need to, use a wooden dowel and pin point the spot. Sorry I can not be anymore help, but this is just too broad of a question.

probably the good ol lifter tickle... common on dsms...

Uh yea it was just that stupid little plate under the engine by the trans that was scraping the flexplate and torque converter and so i just bent it way back and now it runs great.

NO TICKING
