The springs just make for a noiser valvetrain. The valves are getting shut closer and held open longer...that's what makes that sound.
My TR224 does the same thing. You will also notice that sound a bit more when you go form stock exhaust manifolds to long tube headers, the headers are thin walled compared to the heavy manifolds which are cast iron and thus dampen valvetrain noise quite a bit.
