ticking noise.. valve clearance?

those who have gone turbo with their Fit, have you noticed that the turbo impacts the valve clearance very significantly? my fit has less than 12K miles and the ticking noise is so loud during idle. could it be that the valve clearance is out of range already? that soon?

Its possible. Small Honda motors are notoriously "ticky" at idle, but excessive noise is usually valve clearance. Cant hurt to check.
