Default loud exhaust! please help

So i brought my car to the shop the other day to have koni front struts put in and have my power steering rack and pinion de powered. When I left the shop i didnt notice anything different. ABout 3 miles into my way home i heard what sounded like a bolt or a rock hit the bottom of my car. I still didnt notice a difference in sound until I hit the highway and I revved it up and it was extremely loud. And when I mean loud I mean loud. It sounded like i had no cat. I got home i checked under my car and the cat is still there. I dont have a jack or a lift. The car runs perfectly accpet it now sounds like a beast lol. I have megan headers and an after market exhaust which im not sure what brand because it came with the car when I bought it and the guy didnt speak english and couldnt tell me. Im thinking a bolt that connects the pipe to the headers fell of and is causing a leak??? Idk please help

Don't know what to tell you if you don't have a jack to get under the car to inspect.
