Sounds like non-stock type spark plugs firing too hot and making a mess of trouble. Could be something else like a sensor leaning fuel mix a touch too though. Exhaust is always hot on a hot motor. The pipes can burn you even on a cooler running engine - but usually not enough to melt plastic unless it's a foot or less away.

hey thanks for the help,,

you think it could be a TP sensor or the mass air flow sensor? the plugs that i where put in it where stock from the dealer that i had shipped over here! and the trash can was about 2 feet away!! crazy. It runs like its missing but when you give it gas it spits and sputers and when i let off the gas it wants to die
