Please help .

I just got my 09 cobalt ss about 6 months ago so I still have lots to learn so some advice here is needed . About a week ago I was pulling into a shopping center but when going up the driveway I went to far right and hit my lip. Immediately after that I lost turbo pressure . Does anyone know what I might have done ? I been reading forums here and some say it's maf or inter cooler . I thought it might be a pinched pipe . Nothing visibly noticeable . I just scuffed my lip and bottom of the inter cooler if this helps .

Probably cracked the intercooler causing a boost leak.

Yep, you cracked your intercooler. If you still have the stock intercooler, there is a condensation tray on the bottom that is easily cracked/broken if you bottom it out. The cracks are usually very hard to spot with the intercooler still on the car, but it doesn't take much of a crack to leak out all of your boost. Just pick up an aftermarket intercooler and you should be good to go again.

No one in their right mind would get a stock replacement unless it was free
