I did replace the pressure plate along with the clutch, and I also resurfaced the flywheel.
As for describing it in a different way: Essentially it feels like the engine is working without the power properly reaching the wheels. When I press the gas, the engine revs faster than it should be able to in the given gear.
Basically I can rev the car as easily as if it we're in neutral. The more I press on the gas the more it "slips" (or whatever it's doing). In higher rpms it "slips" very easily. When I'm around 3K if I nail the gas, it will not accelerate at all but instead just rev up higher, (which to me feels like it is slipping somehow). I can only bring it up to speed if I gradually increase the gas.
my car idles fine from what I can tell, it's always been slightly inconsistent.
As for the clutch proportion valve/ block and hyd system, I'm not entirely sure what those are to be honest.
I would be very happy if it turns out to be something as simple as the cat, since I can just straight pipe it for 50 bucks and be done with it. But I have my doubts its something like that.
I've had power loss before from an air leak in the EGR which caused it to rev about 1000rpm higher than necessary in every gear, but it never felt like the transmission wasn't gripping. Pretty much just felt as if the car was slower.
