i got some holes in my exaust system. there are a couple bout the size of 20c coins and a fair few more smaller ones ranging from the last and second last mufflers and through the tail pipe. Are these illegal, and do they effect the preformance of the car? apart from sounding shit? fixable?

id say it is illegal, as some of the exhaust fumes are exiting before the muffler etc.
