It's the boost solenoid... on the right-side suspension turret.

Mine clicks too and it's pretty normal, apparently. If it's bothering you, you could could try cleaning it out - do a search for methods.

Sounds like mine did, except mine only did it when moving. It may be speedo related, either the cable or head unit.
I bought a new cable but it turned out it was just loose. The movement travels up the cable causing it to click really loudly, like a machine gun.
Worth checking as the cable comes out of the buklhead into a small gearing box at the drivers side of the intercooler. It can be a real bitch to get to if you don't have access to a ramp.

It's still the boost solenoid. It's controlled via the Throttle Position Sensor.

Get the bonnet up, then open the throttle slightly. You'll be able to hear/feel the solenoid clicking. It's the small cylindrical object on the suspension turret with 3 rubber pipes connected.
