Default My Turbo'd D16 is Dead

Yesturday, I was driving down the highway and this woman in the a lane to my right and relatively far in front of me, looses control of her car and ends up in my lane facing me. We hit head on at around 45mph. She was cited, as she should have been

Now for pics and specs (Click for the full versions)



Specs:
D16Y8 with ARP Headstuds
LSD 6 Puck Sprung clutch
KRB-Fab Mani, Dump, Downpipe
54 trim t3/t04e stage 3 wheel with 360 deg thrust upgrade
Real Tial 38mm
Real HKS SSQV
DSM 450's cleaned and flowtested
GM 3 Bar Map; Converted and Chipped P06, Tuned with Crome Pro Using an LM-1
CCA FMIC (Before they were lame)
K-Sport Full Coilovers

A lot of money is in this car and hopefully I don't get fucked

Sucks about your car, but I'm glad both of you are OK. Good luck with the insurance company.

Airbags went off...i was surprised...didn't hurt at all...my neck is still a bit sore..kinda just like waking up on the wrong side of the bed

damage is pretty bad...radiator, bumper (her bumper was actually underneath my hood...i just found it), both fenders are dented in...hood is smashed and wont open. manifold is cracked to ----. cant see the compressor side of the turbo so im not sure, core support, that metal bar behind the bumper

Her insurance company is being a pain in the ***. Just from talking about it they are gonna try and deny, deny, deny. Any advice on making this ---- easier?
