: Dumb question about turbo to exhaust!

I was wondering how the exhaust is attached to the turbo and how hard is it to get to this area? I thought about this after managing to back into a 1 foot stump sticking out of the ground this weekend. The exhaust tip was the only thing that hit the stump, but I hit it hard enough to knock the exhaust out of the rubber hangers by the muffler. I don't think I hurt anything, but could this cause any damage to the turbo? I managed to get the hangers near the muffler lined back up but the one by the exhaust tip is off by about 4". I tried to pry it back in place, but no luck, guess I'll have to heat it with a torch and then bend it back in place.
