Thats quite a specific description of the problem and unfortunately the prognosis isn't good. If you're really lucky then someone has just made a hash of replacing the timing belt. What you describe is the classic symptom of a bad keyway on the main crankshaft pulley. Theres a thread on here from a couple of weeks back, I can't find it now but it tallies with what you describe. The valve timing is shifted so it behaves like its got a really badly designed performance cam.
Sorry, I didn't twig that when you posted on Difflock.
