Update
After a lot of checking through the wiring I've found the VVT solenoid staying retarded
So I spent the afternoon tracing the fault all the way back to the ECU trigger wire not earthing at revs so the solenoid not working and the timing being retarded at speed
Graham and Duncan at Chester Sports Cars were very helpful and had a test rig simulator for my ECU to double check the fault and help me rewire around the fault from another ECU output
I just need the weather to clam down to prove the theory on the road. It all adds up in theory in my mind now

Thanks for all your comments and help without which I would still be getting sprayed

Took the car out today for a run and it's cured now
So it was the timing out because the ECU wasn't triggering the VVT solenoid fitted to the ST engine
I was probably only running 100bhp at the crank as well as getting sprayed with fuel
The car is now back to its insane mental self thanks again
