sounds like it needs a valve adjust if it's startin to tick. if you hear a rattling noise on the right side of it that's the cam chain tensioner and that's a problem with the f4I, they need a manual adjuster to hold the tension.

Re: noise on f4i help.asap????????
it depends on how many of the valves need to be shimmed. its most likely gonna be pretty high$.
