I found a way to make turbines sound better w.o. custom content

I way playing with the engine volume with a turbine engine and the stock turbine engine sounds 1 and 2. And found that you can remove the turbine whine and make them sound more realistic by adjusting the engine volume down to <10% for the turbine engine sound and to <5% for the turbine engine 2 sound. Doing this makes it sound more like a "roar"/white noise than a "screaming whistle." :D For some reason changing the volume percentage only changes whistle volume and not the background sound not that I'm complaining, I actuality like it that way.

However the white noise is fairly quiet and requires a slightly different RPM range but you can always adjust the rpm and turn up your speakers :D.

RPMs that I like with this are: turbine 1 50k to 110k ~6% volume
turbine 2 50k to 110k ~3% volume

This also saves peoples eardrums from the sound of a piston engine playing at the turbine's rpm while not sacrificing to much realism.

the aircraft example is not a high quality aircraft but is here for engine example only.
