Engine Hiss

I recently did some major work to my 1986 944 and went for a "test" drive tonight and when I was driving I noticed a HISSING sound but went away for the most part when I accelerated...where is it coming from?

Hiss

It is neither a vaccuum leak or snakes...I checked for the snakes and it is still too cold here for them next, I checked all the vaccuum lines and none are seperated to leave an opening...what next?

leaking vacuum line that runs your climate control? looses vacuum when accelerating (as opposed to a closed throttlebody=high vacuum) do the vents or anything change, like flow wise?

uh, stick your head in the engine bay and see where it's coming from?

A general idea of location might be helpful...
