When you say knock do you mean detonation or rod knock?
Are you sure you put the timing belt back on properly?

If there's any oil sitting atop the piston area of the tensioner replace it.

Did you adjust the tappet clearances as per the manual ??
Double check timing.

seriously sounds like the valve timing is out.
There have been reports of non-OEM tensioners being completely shite and failing upon installation -- could this be the issue?

Have a look at the cam belt while its running (belt cover off) - it should be obvious if its flapping around or not.
Also take a pic of the cam and crank timing marks
In particular - note the arrow on the crank is NOT the alignment mark.

well - its clear that a whole shite load of unburnt fuel is being dumped in the exhaust for some reason.
Other options are something wrong with the injectors, or more likely, no spark on some cylinders. I'd start there.

A red cat converter wasn't one of our issues, nor was the engine shaking at idle.
I can't really help any further on this one sorry.
