Well if my memory serves me correctly, the stock downpipe/catalytic converter is one solid piece, so if you banged up the cat you more then likely damaged the downpipe as well. What color is the smoke you see? There is the potential for turbo damage since all of these pieces are connected. If you pinched an oil line or anything like that by damaging the exhaust you could be starving the turbo for oil and the smoke could be sings of the turbo on its way out. I'm not trying to jump to conclusions here...just speculating.
