hi
get to a rolling road asap as if they have changed the co2 setting you may not be getting the right fuel under boost and could be detting/pinking which will kill the engine shortly
definately get it setup as if it was high to start with then lowered it needing a setup before the mot if you follow as a setup car done properly would of passed emissions test
so dont play around with ignition drive the car off high boost to a tuner unless you got a spare grand or two for a rebuild
