I AM SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING THAT YOUR TRANSMISSION IS CAUSING THE LACK OF POWER. WHAT ARE THE CODE NUMBERS ITS THROWING? A O2 SENSOR SHOULD NOT CAUSE A LACK OF POWER.

p1166 and 1167 is o2 sensor heater malf. The o2 sensor needs to be replaced. and im really thinking your transmission problem is the cause of your lack of power.

When trouble codes are detectd by the engine management system, it can result in PCM reverting to fail-safe mode and when this occurs, the rev limiter can be reduced to less than 3500 rpm.

A faulty O2 sensor can result in lack of power, more like minimal or no response from the throttle. I would suggest rectifying the O2 sensors faults and retest.
