Do you still have cats on the car? If big chunks of metal honeycomb break apart inside one, they will cause all sorts of weird power loss at varying RPMs depending on how blocked the exhaust is.

Umm. I would check the secondary injectors. If those don't work, then I might look into (if you have an S5) the OMP. If thats bad, its going to put your car into "limp" mode. Maybe the exhaust theory has some merit, that I am not sure of.
