I found the same when i first swapped from a CTR to a MY 2003 STi PPP, much noiser than the CTr but u get used to it, and like the garage says, it's normal

I have also the same thing with my 02 Sti PPP and was advised that it was due to undertemperature braking too much, ie. too much round town and queing and not enough brake loading to get up to working temp. Do a bit of high speed fast braking to get up to proper working temp and it'll clear.
