Default worst luck ever

i was driving down a hill.. behind a truck... the truck driver kicks up a huge rock and i tried to dodge it.. i swerved as fast as i could and i dodged the rock but i bottomed out on the bottom of the hill... i drove up another 100 feet.. my car shuts off.. this is the day after i installed my supercharger.. so im thinkign sht... whats going on.. i try to start my car.. my engine turns over but doesnt start.. so i tried it again.. then this time it sounded a lil worse.. then i realize all my engine oil is on the cement.. so when i bottomed out.. it must have poped something for all the engine oil to leak out... im getting my car towed tomorrow morning.. my question is.. is there a chance that my engine is really Fcked.... cuz i tried to start my car when theres no oil in the engine?? how much should i expect to pay to get this fixed??

did you find out what it is? did your oil pan just get a hole in it and leak out??

if so you can do that yourself for cheap??

Since you had been driving and it sounds like you only tried to start it a couple of times, you're probably okay. The residual oil probably kept you protected. Now that it's been sitting, don't even think about turning it over.

You car should start even if it doesn't have any oil. Something else is wrong too.

I did this to my last car, kept trying to turn it over and the engine seized. Good luck.
