Question my 350 makes a weird sound im paranoid

Well this past two days my Z has been making this weird sound, every time im at high speeds (70-100000) usualy on the freeway and i go over those lil dips if you lived in socal you would know what i am talking about. Well any ways kinda sounds like a BOV on a turbocharged car which by the way my Z isnt turbocharged (but will have in the near future) and the sound is realy loud just sounds like an enourmous amount or air flow hissing. To me i think its the suspension but not sure so if anyone can help me out and let me know exactly what it is and what i can do to fixs it please do so because im stressing over this alot . Thank You

Find a Nissan dealer you trust. I would not do your own work on this car. I have found anytime you try to save money it cost twice as much down the line to fix what someone did wrong. I had my brakes replaced at my Nissan dealership and they did it for about what it would have cost me. Sounds to me like the brakes are draging from improper install. 350z brakes squeal anyway and if they are dragging they are heating up at high speeds and making a high pitch sound. The other thing is if you have if installed at a shop the come with a 12 month warranty.

Hence my diagnosis of the flux capacitor starting to fail. The 'whooooooooosh' is a common symptom.
