Re: T/A to WS6 conversion No matter what you get, it still won't be a WS6, but here is the list for a clone:
wheels
hood
rear badging
front sway bar
3.23 for A4 (if you don't already have them)
That should be it.

Also, some years of WS6 ('98, '99, and some '00s) got 1LE springs. Shocks were always the same as the regular V8 cars.
