You should also remember that the "warp {}" is necessary...otherwise, 
turbulence will be done first, no matter what its order relative to the 
other transformations is. As I recall, this dates from a time when 
turbulence was a separate feature, before warps were added.

You can package it into a nice little macro:

#macro Turbulence(Amt, Trans)
    transform {Trans inverse}
    warp {
        turbulence Amt
    }
    transform {Trans}
#end

#macro TurbulenceOLO(Amt, Octaves, Lambda, Omega, Trans)
    transform {Trans inverse}
    warp {
        turbulence Amt
        lambda Lambda
        octaves Octaves
        omega Omega
    }
    transform {Trans}
#end

TransformedTurbulence(0.3, transform {translate <-3,-3,-3>})
