    I'd get a second opinion on the timing... Most places will advance it too far to get peek performance when the engine is at running temp but can create a bad knock when cold. Is not good for your engine if that's what it is.

    Yes I took mine to Jindabyne and I thought the next morning that I had wrecked the motor however when I got back down it quieten didn’t down, I have a 18g turbo and 12 mm boosted pump so it’s been advanced a lot.

    Have you tried different oil?
    I've experimented with many different oils and brands over the years and it amazes me how the engine sounds and "feels" under different lubes.
