Default 1992 960 Timing Belt

So I replaced the timing belt this weekend on my 960, a pain for a person with limited experience like me. I made sure not to turn the top 2 pulley's as I knew those were the most important. However to get the old belt off and the new belt on I had to turn the bottom (crank shaft?) pulley. Car runs great but I have lost almost 50% power, I am dang near positive that what I did caused this but I am not sure how to get it back to the way it should be. I know it can turn some to the left and right, looking straight on it I couldn't turn it anymore to the left but I could turn it to the right to tighten the belt as I was putting it on. Does anyone have suggestions or first hand knowledge on this? I started to drive it to work but quickly turned around and picked up my mother in laws car so it's just parked for now.
