Ncan you tell I'm an engineer?

Since you're an engineer I'm sure you know that the color of the surface you are shooting impacts the output of you IR thermometer. With that being said make sure you're comparing apples to apples in order to make a statement concerning coated mufflers vs. stock mufflers! Different surface colors, different results...
