Great.
What I don't understand is why it bothers you that people like me are adamant about having Subaru address the issue. What exactly do you gain from trying to silence me? Nothing, but you have everything to lose in the process.
What I'm suggesting is that if the sound does not bother you, then stop posting in the threads relating to the noise. You've obviously already accepted their bullshit answer, so go away and let the people who are still bothered by it make an attempt to have it removed from not just their car, but yours as well and everyone who buys one in the future.

I realize you didn't have to replace the HPFP(you did it for tuning), but you did and followed up by saying the noise WENT AWAY. Are we asking too much to have them use whatever magical part you installed that doesn't make this idiotic noise as normal? Obviously one company can do it, Subaru should follow their lead. Again, this is by your own admission from your own personal experience so we cannot and will not dismiss it as hearsay.
edit: I just read the post a few above mine in which the Toyo tech mentioned gas and lack of proper lubrication. I'm not a mechanic or anything close to it, but if true, then I'd say you nailed the issue many many pages ago when you mentioned the HPFP...that in conjunction with your personal experience documented above seems to be a pretty good answer as to how to get rid of the sound...replace the part in question with one that isn't so picky about gasoline mixtures(again, only if true).
