What brand and grade of gas are you using? 87 or higher?
Subarus have an issue with valve dirtiness on their 2.0Ts with anything under 93 oct.
I recently switched to higher octane, every now and again add a little TWC3 to keep things filmed up a little.
Non ethanol 90 did wonderful, 93 does wonderful, staying 89+ now. It's only a few bucks extra per fill up but have seen 3-5 mpg hwy increase as well as FAR less throttle needed (see energy density of reg gas vs partial ethanol/octane) to propel forwards.

I been using premium gas it my fit. I notice better acceleration and increased gas mileage. Just took at trip and getting 38 mpg at 75mph.
Same trip with 89 octane gas i get 32 mpg at 75 mph. Their is great benefit in using higher octane.
