Default rattling at 4500rpm's

So I ran top down for the first time in a while today because of the nice weather. And I noticed that right a 44-4500 rpm's all the way to 9k there was what sounded like really loud valves... I have always kept up on oil changes and always let my car worm up...

I have a Berk header/hfc, t1r single 70mm Exhaust that is very loud that I can hear the rattling sound over. along with a comp-tech intake.

Just wondering if its just a normal I need a vavle adjustment or something more severe that I need to be worried about...

It just seem strange to me that it doesn't get louder with rpm's it just abruptly starts raddling at 4500 rpm's and doesn't seem to get louder or faster or anything

And just to clarify it sounds like its definitely coming from the motor...

Thanks in advance,

Ryan

Have you tried putting the oem header back on? I sorta had the same issue and found it was my exhaust that had a leak.

I know I have a Exhaust leak that I am fixing this weekend but I dont have the stock header. I know the valves are louder with an aftermarket header but this is more of a valve noise. Sounds like very loud valves
