Default are my turbos damaged?

so i got hit a couple weeks ago and got a ton of front end damage, the place that did the repairs does mainly body stuff and hardly any engine work.
right after i got hit the oil temp was about as far as the needle goes, and i was getting no boost at all.
so im wondering if i should take it to a better shop and have their opinion on it, it would be really nice if insurance would pay for it, instead of me having to pay for it in a couple months if they go out.

Default Oh boy

I've seen idiots starting cars with ICs missing or cracked oil pans .

take your car to a local Audi shop and have it looked at .
