I can't point you to the exact problem, but glowing red exaust means an extremely lean condition, as in not enough fuel. Tell your tech to watch the oxygen sensor, injector pulse width, etc, while the car is driven. You might offer to drive while he watches, the closer he can watch, the better. I hope this helps.
