hey man , i had the EXACT same thing on my car. It is defin the turbo. Sounds like a rattlesnake inside the turbo everytime you let off the pedal. You need a new turbo. I am getting mine rebuilt or i might just buy a used one to replace it. Ko4 turbo is way above my expenses. =)

i hear the sound even if i do baby the turbo, one my rpms go over 2000 and i let off the gas i hear the clicking noise. It doesnt matter if im driving or i rev the car in neutral, one it breaks 2000rpm and i let off i hear the rattle. Now its definetly coming from the turbo side and Ive been getting codes for my cat so i think its on its way out. Can the cat be making this noise. And my solution was that i bought an ATP testpipe and K04 turbo, just need to install them now and see if it changes the situation
