Hey All

With a hole in the Resonated pipe would that cause more consumption of petrol ?

If the lambda reads lean because of the hole I would say yes.

Where exactly is the hole as the lambda sensor is further up towards the engine and not on the catback section.

If it's not near the lambda shouldn't make any difference then.
