when you removed the hard pipe containing the silencer, you may have upset one or both of the rubber pipes on either side. This happened to me when I did the same thing a couple of years back on my 94 SE. Check the hose connections at both ends on both hoses, especially where it dumps out of the turbo, this one sees a lot of heat and is the first to rot out. My hoses were pretty crusty and falling apart, and since the silencer removal didn't seem to do much anyway, I replaced all the hoses and the intercooler with the Viggen IC. Now THAT made a difference, I got new hoses and the car runs lots better.
I hope you did not reinstall that pipe with only a portion of the silencer removed as bits of it can be passed into your engine. You must remove all of it once started. You nedd to get a big screwdriver and destroy the sucker to get it all out.
