my car is not running good at all lost of power, it has a ruptura muffler would that be the reason?

If the internal components have dislodged and are blocking the exhaust flow it will seriously affect performance.

If it's ruptured I'd say no, since there is a big hole in it.

The fact that your muffler ruptured indicates to me that you have too much fuel in the exhaust, and it ignited, blowing the muffler out with a backfire.

Fix the engine problem before blowing another muffler.

When you have a damaged muffler it affects the way your car runs.

Yes. The whole exhaust system can have a massive effect on performance. People under rate the effect so a stock system will work best.

The whole package is designed to work as one.

It is very possible though not definite
