98 trans am ws6 new owner
I'm picking up my ws6 this week and I'm curious if there is any free mods that are specific to the ws6. I've owned several camaro's and still have a 99
1le car so I know all the basic ls1 tricks. I've heard there might be something in the hood scoops to take out? Thanks for any help.

Thanks for the reply I Knew the camaro ss hood was functional but I wasn't sure about the ws6.

Well the ss hood is fully functional so if the ws6 is not then its not as good but if you cut the baffles out you should be able to pick up more than 2hp.

The shorter path for the air for the WS6 hood, combined with the outside air intake closer to the nose of the car rather than further back under a dead-zone like the SS hood, results in a more efficient CAI. Need proof? Check out the 8/99 issue of C&D where they compared identically equipped '99 WS6 and SS 'verts w/ M6. Up to ~100MPH they were nearly identical, but after that the WS6 pulled away and hit the speed limiter at 162MPH while the SS ran out of breath at 158MPH. "Ram Air" indeed.
