1. A method for a boosted engine, comprising: during an engine start where a turbine speed is within a threshold range determined by a controller and based on sensed turbine resonance, actuating a scroll valve coupled to an outer scroll of an exhaust turbine to an open position via the controller and starting the engine. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising, adjusting one or more of EGR, VCT, spark timing, and intake throttle position during the engine start based on the opening of the scroll valve. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein starting the engine with the scroll valve open includes moving the scroll valve to a fully open position at the engine start, a timing of moving the scroll valve based on a transmission event during the engine start. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein an opening of the scroll valve is adjusted based on each of the turbine speed and a sensed exhaust temperature. 5. The method of claim 4, further comprising, opening a wastegate coupled across the exhaust turbine. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein an order of opening the wastegate and the scroll valve is based on an authority of the wastegate relative to the scroll valve at given engine operating conditions. 7. The method of claim 5, maintaining each of the scroll valve and wastegate open until the turbine speed is outside of the threshold range, the method further comprising, after the turbine speed is outside of the threshold range, adjusting a position of each of the scroll valve and the wastegate based on exhaust temperature. 8. A method for an engine, comprising, during a first cold or hot start where a turbine speed is outside a threshold range based on sensor input and determined by a controller, actuating a scroll valve coupled to an outer scroll of an exhaust turbine to a more closed position via the controller and starting the engine; andduring a second, different cold or hot start where the turbine speed is inside the threshold range, actuating the scroll valve to a more open position via the controller and starting the engine. 9. The method of claim 8, wherein during the first cold or hot start, the engine is started with the scroll valve more closed for a first, larger number of combustion events since engine start, and wherein during the second cold or hot start, the engine is started with the scroll valve more open for a second, smaller number of combustion events since engine start. 10. The method of claim 8, wherein the threshold range is based on one or more of manifold pressure, airflow, engine speed, estimated or measured exhaust gas temperature and spark timing. 11. The method of claim 8, wherein the first cold or hot start includes an engine start with no indication of turbocharger resonance, and wherein the second cold or hot start includes an engine start with an indication of turbocharger resonance. 12. The method of claim 8, wherein during each of the first and second cold or hot starts, an opening of an exhaust turbine wastegate is adjusted based on the opening of the scroll valve. 13. An engine system, comprising: an engine;a turbocharger for providing a boosted aircharge to the engine, the turbocharger including an intake compressor and an exhaust turbine, the exhaust turbine including a first outer and a second inner scroll;a scroll valve coupled between an engine exhaust manifold and an inlet of the first outer scroll;a wastegate included in a bypass coupled between an inlet and an outlet of the turbine; anda controller with computer readable instructions for, during an engine start condition, when turbine speed is lower than a threshold, starting the engine with an opening of the scroll valve increased based on the turbine speed. 14. The system of claim 13, wherein the controller includes further instructions for, during the engine start condition, after turbine speed is higher than the threshold, decreasing the opening of the scroll valve based on exhaust temperature. 15. The system of claim 13, wherein the controller includes further instructions for sequentially opening the scroll valve and the wastegate, an order of the sequential opening based on a relative authority of the wastegate and the scroll valve. 16. The system of claim 13, wherein the controller includes further instructions for adjusting one or more of EGR, VCT, spark timing, and throttle position while adjusting the scroll valve. 17. The system of claim 13, wherein the controller includes further instructions for, during the engine start condition, when turbine speed is higher than the threshold, starting the engine with the with an opening of the scroll valve decreased based on exhaust temperature. 18. The system of claim 13, wherein starting the engine with the opening of the scroll valve increased includes adjusting a timing of increasing the opening of the scroll valve based on a transmission event so that the opening of the scroll valve at least partially overlaps the transmission event.
