dif between stock ta and ws6

[scotthd]

this may sound like a dumb question but what is the dif between a 01 ta and an 01 ws6 I bought an 01 with a non functional ram air have since added the ws6 intake to make it functional

as far as I know other than the 15 or so extra hp the factory says the ws6 has the only differance is a ram air hood polished rims a stainless exhaust the badging ofcourse and a better tuned suspension....but I don't own a ws6 so I might be wrong with some of that.

[scotthd]

thanks I bought mine with a non functional hood and added the ws6 intake and opened the inductions on the hood

had to try to keep up with my bud who has a 05 roush mustang with nos,headers,underdrivepulley,short throw shifter etc

[LS1buckey]

how's that working out for you? t/a looks way better than any mustang if you ask me.

[scotthd]

it works out well I love the look I have a 95 mustang also lowered with new wheels and exhaust but the ta blows it away

[scotthd]

what do you think about changing the mass airfow sensor does it help much I have a bit of a prob keeping up with the roush

[rapter34]

MAF is a waste of money get some long tube headers on there.

Thats not a bad idea but depending on how much you can find one for I'd say their are probably less expensive things you can do. What I mean is for the price which I've found to be around 400 for a good new aftermarket maf you are not going to get that much more power for your buck. have you done exhaust? full is the way to go but a cat back would do really good as well.
Also i've been looking at cams lately and for about the price of a good maf you can get some kick ass power and responce with the right cam set up and depending on which one you get you don't need any other mods to install it.

Be sure to research as much as you can. I am attending school for auto tech right now so I've learned some cool stuff but I'm no master performance guy by any means.

any idea why i might be burning oil I have 55000 use nothing but royal purple I dont blow smoke and run well but add probably a quart a month

[scotthd]

speaking of exhaust is there a true dual available I have looked all over and cant find one

[LS1buckey]

I've heard so many reasons why some of these cars burn oil but what I've learned is it could be a worn valve guide but thats not the only possibilty. Have it checked for sure you deff don't need to be spending money like that or loseing oil like that.

I think the reason you don't see any is because of clearance reasons.

[ultra_badass]

your maf can handel up too about 500hp and after that you might as well go with a speed density tune...dont waist your money on a maf your going to be sorry...spend the money else where like a intake..or headers ect

[scotthd]

thanks

Yep, the ones I've seen end up getting in the way of driveshaft loops torque arms and are speed bump scrapers.

yes tsp makes a true dual system that dumps in front of the rear axle

[scotthd]
