Default Help: Hesitation during WOT

During WOT the car starts to hesitate and then goes. This happens on every gear during WOT. Under normal driving, the car feels strong and alive.

What can it be?

is it stock? have you modified anything?

IF your car is stock and never been modified...then my hunch would be spark plugs need to be changed.

Also did it just happen? Did it possibly happen after you filled the tank? Does the engine light come on at all?

I wouldn't rule that (map) out yet. Anymore info about the above questions may help.

I'd suggest starting off with this idea first. Not a bad idea to replace a little earler either.
