When im driving, and if iam going to slow to be in a gear ( putting a load on the motor ) i will get like a ticking noise untill it gets to the speed it should be at... What is that?...

I always run 93 gas.
Why are you running 93 octane gasoline? A "ticking" noise could be a bunch of different things and the best way to diagnose the problem is take a video clip of your motor running and post it up so we can hear it.
If you run it too low in the rpm, the trans doesn't lubricate very well, a manual has no pump and lubes by windage. Also it could be too heavy oil weight or wrong level in the trans or engine. I always run 93 octane, it runs better and gets enough more mileage than the crappy stuff that it pays for itself.

Also check the ignition parts, poor spark can give you detonation, and that can kill an engine fast.

plugs are good, iam thinkin it may b a manifold exhaust leak?...
p.s i post on a few other sites, and just wanted to say this is the only site where u can actually get a serious anwser out of people. The other sites is nothin but wise a**es
exhaust leak will do it, any changes to the exhaust? also the fuel injectors make a "ticking" sound as they open and close and last is deonation, you state the plugs are good but who's plugs, what heat range and at what gap?
and just because you have a 93 octane tune in it, to much spark advance will cause it to detonate
i no i have an exhaust leak for sure, but wasnt sure if that oculd cause it to bring the sound out more like that...... there motorcraft factory plugs.

Yeah, an exhaust leak can cause ticking and other similar noises. How many miles are on your current spark plugs? If you have over 3-5k on them or don't remember the last time they were changed, get a new set. If you don't have a "gap tool", get one and set the plug gap at .046"
i changed them at 50,0000 and have like 57,000 now
I change my spark plugs every other oil change (roughly 9k miles). You should toss a bottle of Lucas Fuel System Cleaner into your gas tank and run a Sea Foam treatment through one of your intake manifold vacuum lines.
How often do you change your oil? What kind of motor oil do you use (brand and weight)?
I would lean toward exhaust. I had a ticking before i got my catback. I had the midpipe and a stock catback and it was the problem till i put in the bigger catback. If you had your flows welded in your stock catback which is smaller in diameter than the midpipe it may be your problem. Dont mistake the "ticking" sound from a "pinging" sound which is detonation.
