Default got in an accident today, want to know whats wrong

so some guy in a subaru turned left right in front of me today and i messed up the front passenger side alot. luckily it was his fault so its not gonna be too bad for me.
the bumper hood and fender are all screwed. the passenger side intercooler has a big *** dent in it, and right around where the turbos usually kick in 2500-3000ish rpm almost nothing happens and i accelerate extremely slow.

so what could that mean, could it just be a big boost leak, or is that turbo done for?

big boost leak. however - if you keep 'testing' it, that turbo will end up done for.

^^^^Stop driving the car until it is repaired. Sounds like the IC is shot.
