Pretty much.
Compared to a stock TA, the bigger wheels and tires, bigger diameter sway bars, intake and hood and slighty better free flowing exhaust.
Compared to a regular TA, you can feel the difference in handling. Straight line performance, driver's race. I know because my Dad has a regular M6 TA, we'd race when I was stock and it was a driver's race each time. Handling though, driving the 2 cars back to back. My car (WS6) was much more responsive made a noticeable difference.
Correct me if I'am wrong Josh, but I've never heard of a WS6 coming stock with a power sterring cooler?

My car is in the shop and has been for about a month, but thinking about it, they're two hoses coming out of a decent size somewhat shiny tube.
Thank's!

from reading through tons of different threads over the past year or so i think i've got it all covered...
2-piece fiberglass hood with functional hood scoops
raised airbox lid w/ram air decal on lid
power steering cooler
larger diameter front swaybar
98-00 had 1LE springs (i think some bushings were 1LE as well)
00-02 had hurst shifter (i think---my 02 had one, my 99 doesnt so...)
17" wheels with P275/40/17 tires
free flowing muffler and 3" tips
shiney chrome badge
i think that covers everything...

There are only two options that the WS6 didnt come standard with...which are TCS, and CD changer.
Everything else is standard with the WS6 package
leather, ttops, ram air, rims and tires, larger front sway bar, cat-back is less restrictive(not like it matters because almost everybody switches them out)
Im sure everything has been stated already

My 01 only got the Hurst shift ****, not the shifter according to my door codes. There is a seperate code for the Hurst shifter also which mine doesn't list as having.
