There seems to be a sweet spot for the tick. For mine it's just above idle. Maybe 1000-1200 rpm?

yep, mine is about the same, maybe up to 1500. I can hear it best just slowly cruising through a parking garage or next to a wall. Some days I can hear it no matter what the surroundings are if I am slowly cruising. That's what I hate about it! it sounds like hooptie at a time anyone you drive past can hear it clearly.

Granted the car doesn't FEEL like anything is wrong, no power loss or anything just that ticking sound. Makes me scared to tune it. I wouldn't want a tune to exacerbate an issue then hurt the engine and have Ford blame the tune.
