I have a similar clunking when I tap the throttle on my turbo as well as other turbo's I have driven. My theory is the clunking is coming from the pop-off valve located on the pressurized side (post turbo)of the intake track. The pop-off valve allows pressurized intake air to be dumped back over to the unpressurized side of the intake track (pre-turbo) when the throttle is closed to prevent the turbo from instantly spinning down due to a pressure build up against a closed throttle plate. If the noise does not change with clutch engagement or disengagement I would rule out the clutch, mine has a brand new clutch and the noise did not change. Keep us turbo guy's posted if you get to the bottom of this mystery, Thanks T. Roy
