Tweekin' the turbo - boost question...

Well, upon the advice of BB members I shortened my actuator rod arm (two turns) to give me some more boost. It worked great and was much easier than I thought. In the begining I was only getting about 1/3 into the yellow, now I am right at the top of the yellow range. The problem is that when at WOT and full load, the gage get's up to max yellow and then I hear a strange "clicking" or "rattling" noise coming from the left rear area of the car. The boost gage still holds steady at max. yellow and doesn't flutter or anything. I didn't have this noise when I was set to 1/3 yellow. I then lengthened the rod a turn to try and decrease the boost a bit - this didn't change anything. Should I turn it down some more or will this suspicious sound do my car any harm? I thought that this sound might be from the APC or some kind of limiter. BTW the car is well tuned and in good running order. Suggestions???
