Default High pitch sound above 85mph

I can hear a high pitch sound (whine or wind noise) coming
from the engine compartment when speed is over 85mph. It
is slightly louder than the wind noise the car generates at the
speed. Should I be concerned with it or it is normal or has
something to do with the turbos?

You should be able to hear the turbo's at any speed...

uhhhh, not really. at a steady 85 mph cruise, the turbos are in vacuum, not boost.
