Is it a fat hose? If so that is the turbo outlet hose, any holes there would make you lose boost. Picture?

its the hole that hooks right to the throttle body

depending on the size of the hole it will make you loose boost...bigger hole more boost loss. as you boost more and more though it will eventually become impossible to build much of any boost......short answer...find a new one, probably 10 bucks tops and a j-yard.

since you need a new hose anyway, why not intercool? =)
