Unhappy Paranoia? I hope so

My exhaust went from to out of nowhere
It was deep and just loud enough and then sometime last night started sounding like crap..

I've searched and searched and searched to no avail.
My attempt at describing it: sounds like "air-ey"... or idk. The rumble and roar have been replaced by a nasty, dirty sounding idek how to describe it.
My girlfriend says it sounds "fuzzy"

On a possibly related note it also makes a popping noise when i mash the throttle in park or really any low speed or neutral.
It did it before but I don't think to quite this extent.

Let me stop and apologize if I'm not making complete thoughts or am hard to follow. I've had a migraine all day and am just not all here atm.

Anyway. I've noticed a few things and have pictures but idk if its relevant or if I'm just paranoid. If you guys give me the go ahead I'll post up what pics may be worth something.

Thanks in advance for the help. This stuff is stressing me out!

Go ahead and post up the pics, you don't need anyones permission. What is the deal with this MAFsensor you have listed in your signature? Did you change the MAF? If so what is the deal with it? Do you still have the original MAF?

Its just a jet MAF, and its been on it for a while. And I don't have the original but it'd seem odd that would cause problems with how long its been on but I'm sure you're more knowledgeable than I.

And is there a way to just upload pics? The only thing I'm seeing asks for a URL.

What about the flange where the headers bolt to the heads?
