If you mean the cat / downpipe then you maybe have an air leak on the back of the turbo due to crack or loose bolts.

I removed the cat!!! and muffler terminal red hot at low speed! sometimes the car goes in fits and starts before entering the turbine, and becomes red hot throughout the muffler!!

Could be running very lean or with significantly retarded timing--neither of which is good. Suggest you don't drive it until it's sorted.

Are you sure it's the muffler/silencer? We had a cat fail while mapping a customer Noble a few months back.

Needs replacing, probably collapsed internally.

Take it in somewher, hard to work out exactly what's happeneing, could be leaking injector or seal, lots of things, too complex to internet diagnose?

Change back to your original map and see what happens as your current situation does not sound good
