Default engine problems WRX

Was on my way home along the dual carriageway when all of a sudden i lost all power. I was on boost while this happened, i managed to crawl along and pullover as i came to a stop the car switched off.

I had a look and couldnt see anything much under the bonnet (as it was dark) as i wasnt to far from home i managed to crawl home.

When i got home i checked under the engine bay and found that one of my boost pipes had come off. So i reconnected the pipe and switched the car on.

The car now sounds like its running on 3 cylinders and it can hardly idle steady at all. Im hoping i aint killed the engine.

So what you reckon guys?

what bits shall i start checking??

thanks
hetz
