Personal experience is that N/A straight-piped is annoyingly loud. It gets old really quickly - a straight-through glasspack style muffler with the notches facing downwards(away from the exhaust stream) provides enough quieting to make it reasonable, without changing the tone too much.
Turbo, well, both my current rigs are straight-piped. Make sure you have a "full" exhaust with several bends and a dump after the axle, out the side and it'll be totally reasonable. The turbo makes it a ton quieter; at idle, the engine compartment is 3x louder than the exhaust.
