It had a turbo 5CYL engine it was kind of neat I upgraded the turbo with a TD05 instead of the TD04 which had a bigger compressor wheel and turbine 20PSI only spent $200.

Yikes. Glad you weren't hurt badly.
Don't be afraid to talk to a lawyer. My parents had someone completely total their car after they had put a lot of work into it, and the insurance company wouldn't even pay blue book, just whatever similar age and model cars were going for in the local auto trader. No recognition at all of the fact that it had a new transmission, new engine, new tires, etc. They had to threaten to sue for pain and suffering just to get back to square one.
