I think that the PCM controls the transmission's "kickdown" via the TPS sensor. You could check the TPS output signal for smoothness and voltage. The best way to check transmission control is with a scanner. If the PCM is commanding TCC off and/or down shift to third when you mash it to the floor then there may be something wrong with the transmission internally.
