Nice, this happens when the catalytic converter on the bank two comes apart and clogs the outlet of the exhaust manifold. Here is how to remove it for inspection. I have seen people use a bore-scope and remove the oxygen sensor to help inspec the cat as well, this is a very common problem with these cars. Check out the images (below). Please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.
