Default 1995 Mustang GT 5 speed sounds

Hey I just recently purchased this car and not been able to drive it all that much yet due to Michigan weather. Just a few days ago though I took it out because the weather was dry. I am not sure but I think I was hearing like a humming/whinning that seems to go with the acceleration of the car. I'm not 100% sure though but pretty sure I was hearing it. Also from what I've read my transmission would be a T5 and quite a few people are kinda making it sound like this is pretty normal? Can anyone enlighten me on this?

Could be wheel bearings. I had to replace mine a few years ago. Does the sound change at speed while taking corners and curves?

Not really it sorts seems to change with speed some but it's kinda following the acceleration of the engine. What it kinda reminds me of is the sound you would get out of a turbo or a blower but I don't have those obviously.

I'd personally wait for warmer weather before narrowing this down. Since your from Michigan, you know that cold weather makes for all sorts of creaks and moans from our cars in the winter. Unless your planning on driving that GT as a winter car, I'd suggest waiting on that too lol.

Here's a little example of what I'm talking about. Listen for the whine, ignore the ringing sound at start the phone was resting in the ash tray.
