Knocking under boost?

Ok I have a thread about this when I thought it was the fans but I think this will get it more of the attention it needs to get it fixed. Basically under boost it sounds like a fan or something is hitting or rubbing againest something, a small ticking or knocking sound, which while the psi raises it gets faster. I don't have an aftermarket boost gauge so I don't know what psi it starts at, but it starts on the 2nd line up outta the 4 on the stock boost gauge. The turbo has no shaft play that I can tell, and there is very little oil along the walls of the top of the intercooler, none in the bottom, and none in a puddle or anything like that. Happens in all gears, but only when the boost reaches that certain point.

Congratulations! Now when you're ready to install a new turbo, you'll have a little experience on how things are put together, and hopefully the bolts won't be siezed at all. (You remembered the anti-sieze, right?) Good job.
