Default Flywheel timing off a tooth?

Hi all,
I have a "new to me" '05 defender TD5 that is seriously lacking power in gears 3-5, hates hills. tops out at 90kph on a flat.
MAF is good, new stock turbo (oil leek in old one & shop cracked housing when trying to repair), EGR has been blanked, engine compression is 400psi, injectors are in proper position. New fuel, air & oil filters.
It looks like the timing hole for the flywheel might be off by 1 tooth when the crankshaft is aligned to its hole. not sure how that may have happened.. what would you expect as an effect if this is the case? it starts, idles and runs w/o knocking.

any ideas on what else to investigate would be greatly appreciated!
