bent piping

well i was on the road tonight and basically what happened is that i hit a rock, it bumped around my undercarriage and bent my exhaust. it looked to be the section where its connected to the cat. anyways, its nighttime but from the looks of it, it looks like its CRUSHED as in bent upward so the top and bottom are touching. now my car still runs fine but it gets this loud noise everytime i apply throttle on my auto 03 ex. i know its just restricting air and thats why its vibrating like crazy. my question is will it hurt my car or motor if i drive it for more than 2 days? because thats about how long it will take me to get it fixed. since it looks bent in, do you think the backpressure from the exhaust coming from the headers will put strain on any motor components? thanks for the input in advance. and btw, i have a greddy evoII exhaust.
