I was peeling in first (high RPM) and then when i shifted to second, my exaust felt and sounded really different ...after when i stopped to check it out, it started to smell like sumthing was burning in my car. I dunno wats going on, this has never happened b4, surely i broke sumthing, but what?

Re: Sumthin's wrong

Chances are you blew a gasket in your Exhaust manifold. Take a small hose of some sort and turn the car on. Listen around to see if there is a leak in your pipe. Do the same underneath near your cat-convertor. Does it smell like gas when you accelerate?

Is there anything wrong when you shift the car too? Does it drive alright? Also, is there are a ticking noise that gets louder the more you push the gas pedal?
