Re: Is this normal? (noise around 5k)

All right, now I hear what you're talking about. Does it only happen at WOT? It could just be exhaust resonance. Sometimes engine speed and load meet at a magic place and make your exhaust sound rattly.

Ah. Could this be caused by an exhaust leak perhaps then?

Or just having an exhaust.

Could also be a wastegate thing as others have said. Check your O2 housing for leaks and cracks.
