Trans Am Vs Trans Am Ws6?? Whats The Diff?

From what I know the only difference between tha regular Trans Am and a ws6 in 1998+ is Hood, Suspension & Rims.. Correct??

Also Intake & Exhaust is different..

But all body panels (minus hood) are the same right??

and interior is exactly the same.

The interior is the same, and the only body difference is the hood and badging. A WS6 has a better exhaust, and a airbox that sits higher to let more air in from the nostrils. The WS6 also comes with 17 inch wheels, and there used to be a little bit upgrades suspension, but I do not know if that is true on the newer models.

Yeah I think the Ws6 comes with better shocks and spring than regular TAs for all years..

and as for the airbox.. an aftermarket lid should fix that correct?

A lid is beneficial to both. The WS6 lower air box is raised up higher to let more air come in through the front. The FRA mod is a good thing to compensate that with.

WS6

also comes with a steering wheel cooler, the Ws6 does, less restrictive exhaust, Hood and air box, stiffer suspension, bigger wheels and tires.

But you can do what I did and put the SLP firehhawk suspension, loudmouth exhaust, Ram Air hood and airbox, 17" tires and all im missing is the badges!
