Afraid I don't have much... ok, any... experience of a 924 Turbo - This is a series two, on the road for the first time in eleven or twelve years, now ok it is missing the tin-top, but boy does it whistle!!!
A typical Turbo whistle, but do they really make that much noise or is there something wrong with this one? Haven't opened it up yet to see how well it really goes, but it was perfectly happy at seventy on the dual carriageway, and accelerated ok for not much throttle.

And before anyone else suggests it, I'm also sure it will stop whistling if I teach it the words and how to sing!!!
 
Sounds fine to me. Enjoy!!

Have you checked/replaced all the rubber elbows? They crack and leak turbo pressure which could cause a louder whistle than normal. However power will be down.
