In any case i ignored it because the car needs an oil change and thought it was related to that. I still havent gotten an oil change but the ticking has now become a very loud knock even on cold start up.

When i was at a stop light the car revved up to 4k and did not rev back down so i shut off the car and waited a few minutes and started it back up...it was a very rough idle and then it cleared up and here comes the ungodly knocking noise again.

Please tell me its just because the oils dirty and i need to change it...god forbid it be a lifter or something.

is the WAI sealed properly...... i hope you aren't sucking in dirt...
