Yes! The Powerstroke under cold conditions (oil and coolant below certain temperatures, has been idling >2 minutes, transmission is in Park, etc) causes the engine computer to put it into "cold idle" mode.

The restriction of backpressure valve is what gives the exhaust that 747-like roar you hear. Unfortunately also it causes the engine to burn more fuel at idle. But it DOES warm the engine up quickly!
