update on this poping issue. My dealer called in a subie engineer to assess the problem. and to my expectation, it was the spring rotating in reverse and digging into the top mount. this only happens in reverse while i'm turning because it make the spring rotate in the opposite direction, when comparing to turning while i'm moving forward.
the dealer put some kind of rubber gasket between the spring and the top mount where the spring make contact and the noise was gone.
Subaru dealer has agreed to give me an entire new spring and strut assembly, if the gasket did its job fixing the issue. I just want to make sure all problems are solved before going after market. I do have a set of Fortune Auto 500 coming in.
