    Is it coming from the engine, front suspension, rear suspension, or drivetrain? What mods do you have?

    Fold the backseat forward and see if it becomes more prominent, if you want to go further take out the trunk liner and spare. It could be gear whine?

    Gear whine is my inclination. PS pump would be my second. But PS pump is usually a low pitched whirring sound, more than a whine.

    Take a passenger with you and pinpoint if it's front or back. We could all throw internet guesses at you all day regarding these cars. Have someone ride in the back seat, that should help, but if not do some very slow driving in a parking lot and have them walk along side of you. This would make the diagnosis easier for everyone trying to help you here.
