At this point, I'm not sure what to think. I know for a fact my car never made this sound before I brought it in, but on the other hand the dealership was able to reproduce it on three seperate FR-S in stock as a normal sound.

I'm going to record the noise on my next cold start and post it up, maybe you guys can clear this up for me. I'm unsure if I should even bother taking it to another dealership, as it seems like they are likely to tell me the same thing.

Ill try and post the soundclip soon. Thanks for reading
I'm almost certain you are hearing the direct injection. It was probably masked by the chirping. It's an odd noise at first but then you learn it's the sound of the engine working correctly. Just make a video and post up to see if that's in fact what it is.
