Default 2008 XC90 diesel Turbo lag

Not sure if this is an issue. Ever since we've had this wagon the power delivery is by no means linear. When you take off from rest it accelerates smoothly to a certain point, then when the turbo spools up it almost chirps the tyres with the savagery of the power gain. I've not driven any other XC90 diesels to know if this is normal. Anyone have any thoughts?
On the plus side, our battery drain issues have been resolved with the disconnection of the Sirius cable. We're waiting on the loop cable we ordered to arrive and we're looking forward to having a working radio again!
