Hmm not easy to tell from that description. Have a look at your 2nd gears. Might be you shreaded one of them. Also could be your clutch is slipping this would affect acceleration more than top end though. You may have fried a diff. to check this hold the front 2 wheels steady and try moving the back 2 wheels in the same direction (be sensible and don't use far to much force). then hold the back wheels and try moving the front wheels. none of your wheels should move. With a little more info it might be easier to tell. you can always hold your car off the ground for a min and rev it up. This would probably give you a better idea where the noise is coming from.

Could just be something vibrating maybe your exhaust check that everything is tightened up....

Sorry hard to tell with this one. Could be so many things.
