No transmission preasure is only minorly afected by manifold preasure , It is predominatly controlled by throttle position engine rpm and vehical speed sensors , I do notbeleave that your throttle body would be the issue , In fact Im sue of it .If that were possible a dirty air cleaner would cause it to slip , Whats more probable is a misajusted or bad tps , a failed pcs, or most probable your making a litle more power an the 3-4 clutch was about to give up the ghost anyway , preasure probelms would tend to affect the 1-2 shift also .
I think your going to need a transmission overhaul or replacement very soon ,
worn tranny+more power=dead tranny quickly
