Clicking sound coming from engine, not heard outside the car. Poor dampening?
What is your question?
This sound is heard within the cab. It is a slight ticking sound identical to fuel injectors and lifters. It is not heard outside the car; it is only heard inside the car with all the windows up. It does increase in noise with RPM, but does get drowned out if I put my foot on the gas hard enough. I just don't want my car to sound like a sewing machine from inside the cab when I drive. Is this a normal Subaru sound and can I just change the injectors to make it more quiet? Or is it something else entirely.....help!
What makes this problem better or worse?
Nothing

Hello, interesting concern; I would say getting an independent assessment from a technician familiar with Subaru vehicles would be the best move. Very hard to know if a noise you are hearing is normal or abnormal; there would be no recommendations I can think of to eliminate noise by replacing injectors.
The only thing I can think of otherwise is that some vehicles have noise suppressing agents that utilize the vehicle's audio system to neutralize engine noise. That would be the only thing I can imagine otherwise.
