Default My car sounds like a motor boat...

Last night I was driving my crx home and I was turning from a light, when I hear this kind of clanking sound. As if a piece of metal fell of and hit the underbody of the car. Right after that happens it starts to sound like a motor boat. I pull over and pop the hood. I look and don't see anything wrong nothing smoking and the car was still running fine. The only thing I could think of that went wrong is something exhaust related. Like maybe a bolt from my header popped off and now its basically running straight header or something like that. Does that sound right? If anyone has any other ideas on what it could be please do post. Thanks a lot

The car is lowerd it was dark I had a shitty light and no jack. But I tried. It looked like the header could have been a bit loose going to the cat. But nothing was like hanging off or anything.
