I need to correct myself. I can, in fact, hear the turbos spin if I go WOT, even with the roof down. Before I just didn't listen carefully enough. But I think the sound is normal, because it is exactly the same as can be heard in this video of a low mileage 35is going WOT:



It is there after each gear change.
