Depending on the "clicking" noise, Its probably either the starter or a nearly drained battery.

While turning the ignition key:

A long continuous clicking sound will likely be the battery.

And a singe click will likely be the starter.

Did you pull off your battery terminal when you pulled your EFI relay?
Double check your terminals and make sure its tight.
