Power is sent from the engine to the transmission, which then sends power to the transfer case. The transfer case splits your power in two, sending one part of it to the front wheels, and the other part to the rear wheels. Many brands have different ratios of front/rear power split, but Subaru does 50/50.

The release of the high pressure combustion gasses entering the exhaust system causes this noise. Depending on several different inputs into the ECU, such as engine coolant temperature and throttle opening angle, this noise could occur until the engine coolant temperature reaches the desired temperature.
