I have to say, an my wife agrees, the turbo does not make a very good muffler.  The loudness is on the very outside edge of what is tolerable.

I'd say this is a correct statement.  Mine was loud to the point where I had to use special ear seals on my Lightspeed headset to stop them from being overwhelmed.  There were a number of folks grumbling about the noise at the airport too, but mostly because they're grumpy old men with nothing better to do :-)  Anyway, the primary comment I got from the first NA flight with the Spin Tech, was that it was soooooo much quieter than before. 
 
Cheers,
Rusty (Spin Tech, rated number one by grumpy old men)
