Default WOT Problems

I am having a problem with my 2000 TA WS6 M6. The problem starts when I am at wot and about 3-4k rpms. It feels like the engine is cutting out. THe ses light is not on but I do hear a rattle from underneath the car all the time. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

"cutting out" or just falling flat ?

This could be a wide varity of things from fuel and breathing to bent push rods......bent push rods will make you feel like the car is just falling off in the top end.

Good luck ! !

Well the car just seems to flutter when it is at about 3-4k rpm. I also checked the cats and they are fine. One of my friends said that it could be spark knock. Does this seem like a possible cause?
