A split intercooler-to-throttle body hose can cause the car to run
poorly and generate a sound that resembles escaping air.

Also, a split accordian hose from the airflow meter to turbocharger
can also cause the same sort of symptoms--except the sound is that of
air being pulled in.

Note that failures are common to both hoses if they are original.
After 10+ years of use, those hoses can become a little iffy.
