if it has a turbo its a wastgate or blow off valve. they dump the excess pressure (when you release the accelarator) out into the atmosphere so the pressure doesnt damage youre throttle body or you turbo.

I'm guessing that it might also be just the wind noise since between shifts (I'll assume you mean during shifting)the engine is making less noise and at those speeds the wind noise is quite substantial.
