Timer noise
What is the timer sounding noise coming from under the hood while the SS is idling? It's not a motor tick or anything, it literally sounds like a timer. When I shut it off it sounds like something closes or drops. I you haven't heard it before, sart up your SS and listen to it idle, I bet you'll hear it =-) Like I said, I don't think it's a problem, just want to know what it is!

Since I can't hear the noise I can't be sure, but it is probably the purge solenoid. There was a thread about this before and other SS owners were hearing it. It's normal to hear it because it means it is working.
