Default Help needed asap! Run rough, sounds like I installes flow masters!!

I was driving on the freeway when all of the sudden the car sounded a little louder. When I give it gas its like I installed a new exhaust. It almost sounds like the exhaust Is disconnected. Loud and burly. Car is running rough at the same time. I'm about 30 miles from home, I don't know what the problem is, maybe a cat? Can I drive the thing home?

I'm actually dressed pretty nice because I'm heading to a work lunch. Looked at the engine, nothing stood out, looked under the car, nothing stood out

Default Depends where the noise is coming from.

If its from the tailpipe, then pretty good chance you blew a cat (assuming you're running cats). If the exhaust is loud from the engine bay or anywhere underneath it could be a blown gasket.
