depending on your situations I would assume that you knocked loose your lower intercooler pipe some how, take your car in to get it evaluated, no body will be able to pin point any serious issues over the internet

weird, you went up a curb and no alignment damages? i had to replace my control arm, hub bearings, and realign the whole car.
