Default Weird ping noise + Service engine soon on

Today i was cruising back from the beach, i was on the parkway going a consistant 70-80 mph. Randomly my service engine soon light came on. Shortly after, randomly a squeak/ping noise would happen some where on the drivers side of what i think is the engine bay and the car would like bog/slow down 5mph immediatly. This happened around 5 times.

Not sure if this makes a difference, but when i was pulling out of the parking lot, i misjudged the exit and scrapped the y pipe(non stock) pretty hard.

Let me know what you guys think/what i should do.

See what the code is, even if it's not on now it'll be stored. Just guessing but you might have damaged an 02 harness.

Don't run the car anymore, it is bogging because it is running SUPER RICH - which is fine for the engine, but the spark plugs will most likely need to be changed on that side.

Get it fixed and yes you either damage the O2 itself or part of the harness. Most likely if the car is stock its the down stream o2's (rear) but do a visual and since your doing them you have to get them all done so you don't have one reading lazy and a brand new one working fine.

Thats no good either.
