Yeah, stop bringing the Mrs with you when you go out for a blast.
On a more serious note, Sounds like wheel bearings. Is it equal noise both left and right, ? or noisier on a left for example. ?

does it make a screaching noise if the car is on idle and you just turn wheel lock to lock?

A long shot but when i worked at a garage a few years ago we had a car that whined on corners. it turned out to be the shield behind the disk. it had bent towards the disk a little and was touching on corners. Good luck!

16V IS engine!!!
