Power Boost



I was pushing my car pretty hard the other day and noticed about 5500 - 6000
rpm a couple of times I felt a real boost in power.  Even though it was
nice, it was short lived.  I checked my timing after that and it was close
then I checked it at 2500 rpm and it was at the proper amount of advance (13
or 14 deg I think).  Does anyone know what this could be?  I don't know a
whole lot about this engine (1.8L 16v).  I got it for my Rabbit and I
haven't had it apart.  The previous owner said that there is a possibility
that the owner before him put cams in, which would explain the rough idle.
Anyone know any possibilities, let me know please!
