Default Air box question

Simple question, a little nooby but... Anyway.

Im going to pick up my ram air hood this saturday and the guy also has the factory ram air box with one hole i guess broken were it bolts down... My question is, is there any diffrence in a 2001 ws6 lower box/lid then there would be in my 2000 t/a (non ws6) air box? Hes asking 40bux but its broken so i dont know if i should go ahead and grab that while im there since its a 7hr drive to get my friggin hood. I mean i know its made for that hood and all but is there a difference. Im still going to order a slp lid and stuff just wondering if the airbox flowed better or what not.

Thanks.

Where is it broken at? The WS6 lower air box is what you want.

I talked to the guy on the phone, he said 1 of the 4 bolts that it screws down too is cracked. so i guess u can only put 3 screws in it im guessing. but for 40bux or so im thinkin i should get it as long as its better then my stock low airbox. And thanks!

Sounds fixable. Give it a look. There is a pretty big difference. The WS6 lower air boxs opening is about twice the size as the stocker.

Check the forsale section first. $40.00 is a little high if it is not perfect IMO. Depends on how "Pretty" you want to keep your car.

The Ram air box does have a bigger opening, it is worth having over the stock one.
