Your ignition timing is out and that is what is causing the over run when you turn off the engine. Your timing must be a couple of degrees out, could be worth getting a strobe light on it and setting the timing properly.
Edit; the noise you hear when turning could be a cv joint on its way out.

As above get it checked out asap!

CV joint is easy changed, it will usually knock or click when turning on a full lock.
