Default Ticking noise??

I fitted a td05 16g to my 2003 wrx on sunday ready for it remap!
I drove the car home afterwards (less than a mile) didnt boost it.
But theres a weird ticking noise comin from the engine bay! Also when i wound the window down i cud hear what sounded like the turbo slowing down, as i let off the throttle! Is the td05 a noisy turbo or cud i have a blown gasket?
It doesnt seem to do it all the time, and its only at low revs! (I did test that it was boosting after i heard the noise)

Just worried im gonna have to buy a new turbo before my map next week

I know its gonna be hard to diognose without actually hearing the noise in person!

Thanks
