Default TERRIBLE noise!!!

so i had my oil changed and my tires aligned yesterday.. Later that night, when i go WOT my car makes this horrible sound like two swords hitting each other hard then grinding around.. its commin from around the passenger side area near the front of the car. my guess is when they took my tires off, maybe they put them on too tight/not right? HELP!

also when i gradually get into wot, my car shakes really bad at around 3k then at 4k it makes the sound

Thats your torque arm just get a aftermarket one like Bmr or spohn. Don't drive it, it looks like it's barely holding on.
