How long have you been a supra owner?

Oh, 5 or 6 years here... got the car for $300, not running and all of the suspension components in the passenger side wheel wells damaged beyond repair. Turbo'd now, running MAFT Pro on N/A electronics.

Toss the Haynes in the trash...

The Toyota Service and Repair Manual for the MKIII. Pay VERY close attention to the torque specifications, failure to do so may result in damage where you least expect it (for example a warped #1 cylinder wall due to over tightening the timing belt tensioner pulley).

Just had distributor replaced and timing set to top dead center... after, seems like she bogs more than before... really struggling to gain power till after 3000 rpm... could over tightened tensioner cause this problem?

No. An overtightened tensioner won't cause what you describe. The most common and likely problems are: bad TPS or misaligned TPS, bad airflow meter, improper ignition advance or bad mechanical timing, vacuum leak.
