[PaulGT]

I had just gotten home from flordia tonite and decided to take my celi out for a quick spin around the block.....just because i missed her. as im driving my the check engine light turns on.... but i notice no difference in the drive of the car at all. but i decide to hurry home just incase. well i travel about 2 more miles home and then im shiftin into 3rd not really pushing it then my car gos from a rumble to a BLAHHHHHH!!!!! and i notice everthing starting to rattle really bad. At that point the trany is slipping really really bad i cant get any power to the ground so i shift into second and its a little better. so at this point i really wanna get my car home and fast.!!! but i have to make it up this one hill the next neiborhood over from me and i know its going to be rough. i hit the hill at about 35 and about halfway up the hill my rear view mirror just lights up like a the grizwald faimly christmas with flames and sparks and everything nice. And we are not talkin any small little puffs. i mean this just lit up the road both lanes and all. so at that point i decide to stop. and give up on trying to make it home. i drifted down the hill and put my car in front of someones house and call my dad to come and pick me up. And hell yea did i get yelled at for about an hour how i should have never put this exhaust on my car and this and that and this and that...when he has a WRX STI with no cat's and 3 inch pipe from the turbo back. and lots of other mods that put it up to about 350 hp. I hate hipocrates. has anyone else had this problem with there celica? my engine?, my exhaust?, or my Trans? please anyone help me out it would make me sleep easier tonite. also would runnin without a cat make the car get all f-ed up like that because about 2 weeks ago DG made me that catless test pipe but up untill now its been runing great.
