Default loss of power

ok i had my timing belt changed last week. the guy that changed it said the intake side cam gear ( stock cam gears) was retarded 1 tooth. So he put it back in time. i noticed my car wasn't the same slowed down alot. So i had to find out for sure, i took it to secret service to get it dynoed. very depressing results 10 whp less than i had the last time i dynoed there. Here's what really sucks the last time i was at 18psi and a high flow cat. this time i'm at 20psi and no cat. They thought it was a timing issue so i brought it back to the guy who did the timing belt change i stayed there to watch him , timing was on the money . So this might not be the smartest decision but i had him change it back to were it was . It feels like i got my power back . And its running good. i'm gonna get it re-dynoed to find out for sure. Did i do the right thing?
