squeek noise driving me insane

not a 3rd gen but an 88 olds cutless sierra
(beeter car but still gm creation lol)

thing squeeks like crazy...
the faster i go the faster it goes
if i hit the brakes firmly the sound goes away
if i hit a bump or go up hill it stops but quickly returns.

it kinda sounds like the wear sensor thingy on the brakes but it dont sweek when u use the brakes.

it used to not do it if i turned left... now it does it all the time.
anyone know what it might be...?

is your car any louder? loose bolts on the collectors can make the 2 pipes squeek rubbing against each other, but your car would be noticably louder
