My 88 760 t-wagon seems to growl on the highway like it has a droning glasspack or something. My mechanic tells me turbos are loud. I bought a 240 for work, its so nice and quiet, a peaceful car to drive.

Around 35 or 40 it's OK, on the highway at 65-70 it seems to have a rough, growling, performance car noise. I wish I could quiet the thing. Is this the nature of that turbo unit pushing gas through the pipes, all exhaust is stock.
