It could be a loud fuel injector. You could also need a valve adjustment.

even though your friend said it doesnt sound like your valves....i say you just go ahead and do a valve adjustment anyway...the head on my motor was doing a ticking noice too on the intake cam, and would also go faster as i rev...did the valve adjustment and problem fixed..
