While Driving on acceleration wit the foot all the way down 1 and second shift fine. but once i go in to 3rd gear i feel a power loss and i see the rpms drop back like 100-500 rpms from like 3000rpm - 2700. my guess is that it is shifting into 4th gear real quick. then after that i top end on forth at 110 or 112 around that then i feel the limiter kick in... my 3rd gear is not being used all the way someone please help.

What you are seeing is the shift from 3rd to 4th and then the Torque Converter being applied. What speed are you doing when this happens ?

(Throttle Position Sensor) From a standing launch, and remaining at Wide Open Throttle, my Duratec/CD4E doesn't shift into 4th gear, until well over 100 MPH.
