I thought you said you pinpointed the noise where the cam chain tensioner is on the back/top of the engine???

just talked to someone who had the exact same noise i have. he said it turned out to be a blown wastegate? what do you guys think about that?

its coming from the cat area which kinda sounded like the back of the engine at first.. i listened today with a tube and along screwdriver.. i still cant pinpoint it, butthe camchain area is pretty quiet, besides i doesn't do it on idle. i've personally always thought it was coming from there but when cam chain tensioner was mentioned so much before i leaned towards that. and since i'm throwin the cat code now (16806 p0422). i checked the weld at the turbo for leaks, couldn't feel any. the sound seems like its coming at the end of the cat near the post 02 sensor. i cant get back there to feel around for leaks. also there i can't really hear it when the engine is cold.. took about 5-10 miles of driveing before it was really loud again.. i can't hear it out the drivers side window very well, but easily out the passengers window.. that also leads me to believe its the cat. here is a quick vid i took before the batteries died... i'll get a better one up later if you guys want.

Wouldn't a blown diverter valve make an exhaust tick on decel? Stock DVs are plastic. It's easy to get to: remove belly pan. It's black, size of your fist, below and in front of air cleaner box and has 2 1" diameter hoses going into it.
