Default Wired sound when driving...Need help please

Sometimes when I'm driving, regardless of speed, I heard a pingging sound. It sounds like 2 pieces of metal smacking/hitting each other.

Sounds like it's coming from the front end of the car.

Also, I'm boosting; been boosted for about a year now.

Stock gsr motor on 5 psi.


It drives fine everytime, but sometimes that noise just comes and goes.

TIA

When the noise occured, I reeved after it and it didn't come back.

So it's not rpm dependent
