You'll run into issues with knock sensors as well.. No manufacturer that I know of recommends timing gear sets for EFI engines.

Also gear drives are known to transmit harmonics into the valvetrain, and can cause camshafts to break, bearings to gall & seize, teeth to break off... etc etc.

Yeah definately not the kind of thing you want to sacrifice just to make some noise.
Put a blower kit on it mate if you really want to make a whine!!!!
