Chatter while in boost

Whenever I go into full boost I can hear some chattering around and I can't figure it out. My guess is that it's the rocker arms? Possibly not shimmed correctly?

Chatter from where? Something chattering around doesn't pin point the area, which would help significantly.

I'll be sure to check it out and see if that's the case.

well when it goes into boost is when I hear the chatter so I assume it's coming from either the head or the turbo. But my question was to see if maybe somebody had experienced the same problem, like the guy above.

doesn't the turbo start to chatter once it's on it's way out the door?
