It may be the purge solenoid valve (the little thingy that mounts on top of the intake next to the throttle body and has 3 rubber vacuum lines attached to it). It normally clicks while it works. It's hard to hear it when it's attached to the stock rubber intake, but a thin-walled aluminum aftermarket intake will amplify the sound. This is a well-documented problem with installing an intake on our cars.
You can try unplugging the electrical connector and checking if this makes the sound go away. However, leaving the connector unplugged will turn on your "Check Engine" light, so it's not a permanent fix. There are 3 options for a permanent solution:
1) Try and dampen the sound by mounting it to the intake with rubber washers.
2) Remount it elsewhere.
3) Ignore it.
Good luck!
