emissions solved, car passed with flying colors!

Thanks to all those who gave their input regarding my 'new' '94 turbo convertible failing the NYS emissions test. I really thought I was in for a rough, expensive time. But I'm lucky to have a competent garage on the corner that tried little things 1st - gas additive, etc. before they went to anything big like a cat or oxygen sensor.
Bottom line - they fixed a couple of loose intake manifold vacuum hoses, added fuel system cleaner, and she passed with flying colors. The hissing sound from the hoses wasn't that apparent to me, since I bought the car with a busted muffler which covered up extraneous noises. And I went straight out on the highway after replacing the muffler, so I must have missed it.
Anyway, it's good to find a resource like this, and I sure appreciate all the advice, since Saabs are completely new to me.
