Default Tech help for n00b please (crappy cell pic warning)

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/16336/s4_hose_tear.jpg"></center><p>I'm assuming this tear is the cause of the loss of power i've been perceiving in the last weeks? Engine sounds funny under acceleration around 2k revs and sometimes i hear a kind of "rubber rubbing squeak sound" (hard to describe, think of a tire rubbing against something). I've been getting paranoid the last few days and am almost convinced i hear the dentist drill of the turbo lady. could all this be caused by the crack in the pic? TIA.

No, massive holes in your intake are normal. I can't possibly imagine one causing problems.
