Default New timing belt.....what the car will drive like?

Well as you all know my timig belt and water pump got messed up about 2week ago. I was the guy complaining about how HONDA dealership shafted me...

Well the car is running now drive fairly normanl but i still doesen't feel the same.
*The car feels TIGHTER in a sence. Before i was like loose and the power was more smooth. Now with the new belt & water pump it's sorta like stiff and the engine feels less smooth.
*also ever since i got it back from the dealership the cars interior(dash, windows, sunroof, ect parts) seem to be vibrating and BUZZING more. Almost like i have some new engine mounts or some HASPORT urethane mounts. WTF?


Is this suppose to happen?

Possibly or they should have done a valve adjustment which may make it feel different.
