My thought was that Peter was focusing so much on not exploding that he couldn't use any of his other powers, which is why he didn't use TK to fight back against Sylar.
However, whatever else, Peter is WAY too powerful to be a main character. As long as he's around, there's no need for any other permanent characters, since he gets their powers as soon as he's near them. His only weakness is that he needs time to learn how to use new powers. He's a Deus Ex Machina, to be used by the writer at extreme need. So we might see him again, but only against another boss.
