M vehicle needs a new transmission, and it will be getting one this week. I tried to test out the new shocks that i put on last night. When i went to drive down the road it bogged out really bad and wouldn't go at all pretty much. It seems like something was clogged or it was getting to much gas, maybe not enough gas. fuel filter? cat? pump? I feel exhaust coming out of the tail pipe.

Check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel pump/regulator
