Difference in WS6 and a non WS6

[jbizel]

I know very little about the TA's but I am starting to get into them. I was just wondering what the differences are between the ws6 and a non ws6? Thanks

Appearance wise you get that beautiful hood. Ram Air Intake as well right? Im not sure exactly i know its more powerful and has the hood

[ikeyballz]

hood, springs, wider tires, spoiler, +15 or so hp from hood..
you can add
exhaust, oil cooler, shocks, etc etc..

WS6 and non WS6 have the same spoiler

The only differences are hood, wheels, and springs. The hood does not make any difference in power though, you can do a simple mod and cut the bottom of the airbox and get the same power. The only thing you should think about when deciding between ws6 and non ws6 is if you want the hood.

As stated above the WS6 had ram air hood, less restrictive exhaust system, springs (Not sure of), 17" rims (275mm wide vs. 245mm wide), and I believe a beefier front sway bar. Luos can elaborate more.

[Mr. Luos]

Front and rear sway bars I believe.


The main difference is roughly $3,000.

more of that $3k goes towards appearance differences than performance upgrades...but of course i'm gonna say that i just wish a regular trans am had a name instead of "non-ws6", like the maros have both z28 and SS. makes me

Thankyou to everyone who posted. I now know a lil bit more. Mr.Lous I like your video.

Yep in 20-30 years I think us WS6 owners will have a little more cha-ching value for our cars

Hopefully I can keep mine that long. I see that there is an increase in value of the WS6 already, and I might have a potential buyer for $17K. Dunno though.

Watch it go up $10 in 5 years. I'd be heated

[ikeyballz]

agreed.. with the SS

plus, idk if you get it in the WS6..but in the SS, you get that awesome SS emblem in the dash... =P

You could always get the ram air hood for the regular TA, though. It would pretty much look the same. Just none of the other stuff.

the actual GM ws6 hood i believe is $1700 from the factory, unpainted. if i had that much $$ to throw at the car it'd def go towards performance mods.

^ yeah, i agree. thats way to much for a cosmetic enhancement IMHO.
