Angry 98 Auto Issues

Alright well the car is giving me a little headache nothing to serious at this point just looking for some opinions here. When I get on it hard it will kick out the traction control downshift but once it goes to upshift into the next gear it bogs down a bit almost like it skipped over a gear completely. The tranny has been rebuilt with a shift kit by a very reliable mechanic I know and I know that its not bogging down due to lack of power... Is it possible its skipping a gear does the traction control deal have something to do with the issue? Im at an annoying loss right now. Thanks

Switch off your traction control ("ASR" rocker switch on the center dash), and try it again.

Well abs on or off it doesnt matter but I did find a "slight leak" of transmission fluid on a fitting that must spray when warmed up causing it to be roughly a pint to a quart low
