It sounds like a mustang... =(

[4do E30]

I have no clue what could have happened. It was a wet day and i hit the gas a little too hard off a stop sign and did a mini burnout. And right when my tires stopped spinning, my exhaust system went from sounding crisp and clean like a bmw should sound to rough like a mustang. And my car isnt accelerating as fast. this all happened the second my tires stopped spinning.
WHAT HAPPENED??

is it driveable?
because i wont have time to do that tomorrow

[e30s52]

I wouldnt drive it till it was fixed but its an m20. You can buy one for 100 bucks.

[4do E30]

how easy is it to do it yourself? and how much is it in a shop?

[e30s52]

Call a shop and find out is the best way to find a price on that. Its not to bad to replace it.

[4do E30]
