I've recently Installed headers on my 2017 GT and ever since I've noticed this ticking noise, it seems most noticeable under load/low RPMs, i.e high gear going up a hill or something really exacerbates it. Unless I'm next to a wall I can't hear it with the windows down, I can only hear it windows up music off.
I'm in Australia so it's a RHD model and I seem to notice it coming from the driver side and not really the passenger side (of course the drivers side header is the painful one to get on and off) So far I've had the driver side header off twice since putting them on and each time the noise is still there, I've tried different gaskets, stock ones twice and now the graphite ones that came with the headers, I've cut the inter joining bits on the header flange in case there was a slight warp so it would pull up easier, nothing seems to get rid of it. It's killing me and I'm starting to contemplate my life choices in getting these headers lol.
Does anyone else who has headers hear a similar noise to the videos below or have I still got a leak to chase down somehow

After watching these videos back on my laptop I can hardly even hear the noise... so they may not be much help, but it might depend on what speakers you have.
