Actually, the more retarded the timing and/or the AVCS exhaust valve timing is, the louder it gets. That's the whole reason behind lowering startup idle speed, noise, and it's done by reducing speed and backing off the post-start timing retard. So, an OFT can be used to get the right sound as well.
