Ok guys do you this this is usable?

It would be hard to tell with just a picture. Does it look pretty? Not really. A pressure test will give you a yes or no.

Had grass an everything smashed into it an I sprayed it out with the water hose an no water seemed to get inside how do I perform a pressure test?[DOUBLEPOST=1408922000][/DOUBLEPOST]It's also the backside of the intercooler

cap off one end, BLT with a gauge on the other side. Then add air to desired psi. Spray with soap and water. It should hold the pressure.

Plug up the inlet and outlet of the IC. On one plug have a port to apply air pressure much like airing up a tire. Use a pressure gauge or a nipple from a tire and a tire gauge. Put in more pressure than what your boost pressure will be and see if it holds. Spray the outside with soapy water just like you would for checking a tire for a leak.

Ok cool I'm going to give it a try an see what happens it was smashed into my centermember from Horton an unseen speedbump also have another question about the air bags they also popped and I replaced them but haven't plugged them in yet now once I change the airbag control unit can I Jus plug them in? An since they popped will that reset my tune? Using Dsm link

Tune in ECM Link will not be affected if it is ver 3 I know not sure about earlier versions.

Ok thank you guys for the help

As for your tune, I'm not positive on how the dsms handle all that but the tune is written to the ecu, obviously a different control module than the computer. I don't for see it affecting your tune in any way. You'll likely have to take the car to a body shop to have the light reset so the srs system is functional again.
