i would place an educated guess on air flow meter lack of power and high emissions with no engine mil lamp illuminated are classic symptoms, but codes need reading from engine ecu and live data looking at really

Perhaps you have a clogged up catalytic converter or other exhaust constriction.

I'd be looking at the air flow meter. Did the lamda sensors get checked when u did the pipe? Did you check there was nothing in it when it was fitted-I've found an oily rag in one before, ok it didn't block the pipe,but???
