What is this noise?

Hey guys. My car has been acting up when it hits boost for a while now. It has bucked, spit and backfired when going into boost. Now it is making this noise. I took a video of it, it was in 2nd gear. One of the videos you can hear it about to do its sputter and buck but I let off. I'm hoping its a boost leak but the ticking / flapping noise has got me pretty concerned. Any ideas?

Congrats. I have never heard a sound like that before.

Check your fuel trims and check for a boost leak.
Take your intake off and check turbo for shaft play.

It doesn't sound like valve train noise to me, but for sure a weird sound.

Could be as simple as an exhaust leak and the gasket flapping.

haha thanks! I found a very small boost leak on the stock pipe. Ordered the ZZP pipes and couplers the other day. Hoping its not the wastegate.
