I was extremely concerned becuase I was pushing 600+rwhp on the stock bottom end in a car that comes stock with 330rwhp and is known to have a small % of cars that have bearing issues

A ticking sound that is coming from the motor is not something that should whimsically be dismissed when your pushing the car to its absolute potential. But now that the car is stock I dont give the slightest shit about it anymore and if it blows it blows and I bring it to the dealer.
