Any SR experts in the East Bay? Need help badly

I've been trying to fix my SR the last couple of days and pretty much give up.

The SR ran completely fine until I hit a bump in the road which hit my intercooler and tore one of the couplers. I replaced the torn coupler and checked for leakage.

Here are the symptons:

1. Engine starts but doesn't idle smoothly.
2. I can rev the engine up to 6000RPM, but it's not smooth and just bogs.
3. I checked intercooler piping and there is no leakage.
4. The old spark plugs looked fouled so I bought new plugs and they got fouled as soon as I used them.
5. It smells like there's gas everywhere when the engine is running.
6. Compression is good at 150psi across all cylinders.

Rechecked the intercooler piping from the turbo housing to the air intake, there is no leakage.

Sounds like you still got a major leak in the intercooler or intercooler piping
