3Ds Max smoothing problems with modifier

I'm having problems resolving a problem when I use the "Symmetry" modifier on top of my editable poly. Basically I started in 3Ds max where I had later finished the model in Mudbox where I went to "Level 2". Afterwards I sent it back in to 3Ds Max and I added the Symmetry modifier but it would leave me with jagged lines representing the edges while when I had Turbo it smoothed it but I don't want the extra geometry.

What is it that turbo does that makes it smooth that isn't changing the actual model's tris count and why does Symmetry remove it or do I not understand something properly?

Without Symmetry modifier
