Tranny problems?

When I start the the truck for the first time of the day I wait till the engine temp is around 160.When I take off it seams real powerful at only 10-15 boost and I don't have to get into the pedal much.When the engine heats up to around 200-210 I have to get into the pedal pretty good and my boost jumps up to 25-30 before I have any power.I don't have any shifting issues but the lack off power after warm up makes me nervous.Once I get into the pedal the power is fine egt's hit about 1200 by the time the power kicks in. Any thoughts if I should be worried?

All I can think is the TC is slipping when the fluid gets warm? HTH

I'm putting some cash back for a new one unfortunately I just ordered a bunch of suspension parts so I'm tapped for a couple of weeks.Is there any kind of additive or something I can do to make it last a few more weeks?BTY I just changed the fluid,filter,pressure solenoid,transducer last weekend hoping it would help.
