Default when its WOT the motor shuts down???? HELP!!!

i searched last night for some info, found similar topics, but alot of them didnt have the solution once it was fixed..

at 1/2 or 3/4 throttle, the motor is fine. drives fine, hits vtec, no problems

motor is a 95 gsr-completely stock

once its at WOT, no matter what RPM it shuts down- doesnt shut off, doesnt gain/lose power, totally shuts down and does nothing..

i changed my head gasket and put a new throttle body on, and since then its been doing this..

***********IM NOT THROWING ANY CEL'S**********

this is what ive done so far to try and correct it:
changed spark plugs
changed spark plug wires
changed dizzy rotor
checked timing 4 different times
ive checked my vacuum lines, dont see anything wrong or not hooked up

please help.. anything you can think of

check the TPS sensor and maybe the wires. A couple of dyno sessions i had the car shut off on WOT and it was because the TPS wires were flipped around.

it was the TPS sensor.. i just never figured it could be since it didnt throw a code.. the green and yellow wires were switched around-switched them back and now everything is fine.. thanks for all the help guys!!
