Turbo whine?

Hey folks, sanity check here. With the lovely weather over the weekend I was driving around with my windows down and feel as though there was a lot more "turbo" whine than I recall from summer when the car was new. Am I mis-remembering? Is there a pronounced turbo whine anyway or should I get the car checked out?

Also as an aside - damn screws to release the engine cover window were all rusted so going to have to grease them up and I am also getting some minor water ingress into the rear window, granted I was using a jet-wash but I have noticed quite a bit of condensation in there over winter so maybe the seal isn't as flush as it should be - is that a "feature"?

Cheers in advance

There was a recall/fix on the rear window seal - I had those issues with my first rear screen which led to a wet boot...
I'm not aware of a whine - there's a lot of (good) noise- I've discovered the Darth Vader intake noise but it all sounds good.
I'd ask them to take a look when they check/replace your rear window seal
