I get this too on my MY95 WRX and i was told it was because i use Octane Booster. I don't know if this is true or not just thought it might help

your cars are running occasional advance timing and a little rich on over run.

When you lift off, unburnt fuel goes through a hot exhaust. When it gets close to the tail pipe exit it finds fresh oxygen and burns with a pop.

Nothin wrong with this, and I believe the effect is increased by replacing a recirc dump valve with a vent to atmos.
