The reason a loose spark plug will do that is that it can't dissipate enough heat through the threads to the head, and as a result gets very hot, to the point where the side or center electrode may be close to glowing. As a result you are running on that one cylinder due to dieseling. Tightening it up puts the plug in better contact with the head where it can dissipate the heat and runs much cooler. Straight pipe has nothing to do with it the dieseling, and will only warp valves if it is extremely short, or you pour water down it.
