ok....driving along, had car in 3rd gear, winding it out to test out how cars running for a bud. hit about 6-6500 rpms and about 16-17lbs of boost then all of a sudden all power is lost at wot. let off gas then floor again, the power isnt there. downshift then upshift no power in any gears. right away--pull off the road and shut the car down. as im pulling off the road i glance down and see that i have no oil pressure at all by my guage. the car would restart but then stall right out in a few seconds with no oil pressure still. check the oil on dipstick and its extremely low. it looks like oil has gotten over the underneath of my car but no sure because have been having a leak for a while. what could have happened? right now im out $85 for a tow to my house(couldn't even take to mechanics because his house just caught on fire!). what looks to be possible fixes and or possible damage? Thanks.
 
to my luck it turns out that it was just a a intercooler coupling that came off... im good to go now!
