Default Are DSM injectors supposed to be loud?

I just installed a turbo about 2000 miles ago and have noticed a really loud ticking at idle, im assuming its the DSM injectors because you cant here it if you rev past 2500rpms. Is the DSM injector ticking normal?

I don't know if they are "supposed" to be loud, but mine are loud as a ****.

I used to think it was my valves ticking until I used a long extension to listen to the injectors. Yeah, they tick. But it's totally normal so whatev.
