Seems this behavior is also really common on returnless fuel systems. Every time I've converted a car to return style, the problem goes away (my theory is that since the fuel pressure has a way to drain back into the tank, it won't ever dribble out of the PI injectors -- which I believe is what really causes the issue, the fuel may be dribbling out a little and just vaporizing in the IM).

The fuel boils a little bit "somewhere" in the rail/line and, in a returnless system, that bubble has nowhere to go. If a port injector ever dribbles it's time to replace it. Makes sense in this car because it gets friggin HOT under the hood.
