Do I need to take it back and let him know about the Torque Tube issue, or is it possibly what he is saying?
My only comment would be the hi presssure DI does make a almost a ticking sound but if you can not hear it with the hood up have them put the car on a lift and see if it can be heard from under the car. My understanding of this is the bell shape of the torque tube housing amplifies the noise in the torque tube area.
I hope this is of some help after all that is what I think these sites are all about helping each other.
