You have a turbo problem. It's bearings are going. You will get the same thing on hard acceleration then let off? - then turbo is going bye bye.
Don't fret though,,, that's part of the pleasure of owning a GM SAAB! You get to do your part for the economy and pay for repairs!!
The SAAB Trifecta is Turbo charger, direct ignition cassette (DIC for short) and throttle body in no particular order and if you are real lucky your oil sump will clog up and you will have to replace your whole engine unless you are fast enough to shut off your engine when the light goes on. You get a whopping 2.3 seconds to do it too!
Now I've been told that I should drive my car in cold weather or on short trips. That probably contributed to the problem you are having. That's what did it for me. It also caused the Iraqi war and hurricane Katrina.
Seriously though I bet your turbo is going. They do that around 90,0000 miles. It could be water in the head but I doubt it.
Good luck.
