Default Car won't accelerate....HELP!!!

My car will not accelrate under heavy load or even medium loads. I have to baby the throttle for it to go anywhere and when I do try to get on it there is a really high pitched spooling sound (doubt its the turbo)

Anybody have any ideas as to what the prob. might be?

My set up is in my sig

on my air filter there was a round metal piece in the center that got sucked out by the turbo and it was blocking the air flow and making wierd noises. I don't think it did any damage though.
