I thought I was flashing it. Hooked up to a computer after purchasing a ford app but now I think it was just an upgrade. Going to set up an appointment with a ford dealer.
As far as the file on the old PCM it was the factory PCM.

That should have worked. Tbs7 should just be a later family from tbs5. Still for a 2004 6.0 with a 2004 engine
What do you mean by "while flashing it"?
Also what can you tell us about the pcm you purchased? Do you know what the pcm file was on your old pcm?
Your low power and poor shifting reminds me of a plugged up ebp sensor.

Also to Jeremy's point, the TBS5 PCM should have worked without issue.
Did you have the batteries disconnected before you plugged the PCM in?
These trucks are smarter than most people believe and can indeed learn some bad habits.
I suggest disconnecting the batteries for an hour, reconnecting them and seeing what the PCM does.
I too think you should make sure you EBP tube, fitting at the exhaust manifold, and sensor are clean and clear. If you still have and EGR, make sure that's clean as well.
Also, by PCM file, he meant what strategy was on the PCM. For example: VXBC3N2, VXBC6N4 etc
