So what exactly does the WS6 package include? I have a 98 Formula WS6, and I was curious what exactly the WS6 performance package really include? I am aware of the Ram Air hood, and the air intake that goes with it, and of coarse the WS6 badges, but is that it?

This thread was started because the search came up with nothing. The car does have the Monsoon system in it, as for a different suspension, I am not sure. It doesn't seem to have clearly marked Bilstein shocks like those on Camaro SS's I have seen, and I know for a fact, it isn't lowered as it sits plenty high. The exhaust seems to also be the same as the T/A's and Z28's.
Thanks to those who plain and simple gave me answers and didn't give me the run around.

The WS6 package consists of Larger front swaybar(32mm) higher rate springs,
different valved shocks, (but still Decarbons) low restriction exhaust, (Single 3.5" outlet for `98 only) 17" Wheels w/ 275/40/17 Tires, Ram Air Hood and Raised Airbox.
All Formula's have Monsoon systems standard.
If you have billstiens that means a previous owner upgraded to them.
There was a 1LE Autocross package available only on M6 Formula's that included Koni D/A's but it would Delete all the power options and Monsoon Radio as well.
