Sweet noise...

So i decreased and sprayed the engine down yesterday, did everything correctly....

Today, I was driving around the parking lot looking for a spot and I hear this clicking noise when I give it a little throttle from idle. Its only there at 1000 or so rpms and then goes away when the rpms get higher.

any ideas?

Is it relative to the steering being turned?

Clicking noise at low speed is often CV related
