Default Weird clunking noise at 2.5k

Since yesterday, in every gear at 2500 RPMs the car starts making a clunking noise. It sounds like something is hitting on the exhaust or something like that. WE dont really know what it is. It only does it at 2500 though. It kinda sounds like the flywheel cover is hittting hte flywheel or something. We havnt looked yet, but are gonna tomorrow after my car is fixed, if ever, haha. This is on a freinds car. Let me know any suggestions, thanks.

its because of the sounds waves at 2.5K could be matching the natural frequency of your piping causing it to rattle.
