Default new motor, louder than last.

My last motor blew, and i swapped out to a JDM 2JZ-GE. It runs Great! My concern is how loud it is when it's warming up. It revs up fine with no problems and drives great when it's at the normal temperature. It's twice as loud as my last motor was when you first crank it.

I took my time to swap everything directly, I'm just stumped on why would the sound of the motor be so loud.

Would anyone have any ideas what it could be?

Could need a new exhaust manifold gasket or a valve adjustment.
