  • A little confused about hoods.

    Hi, i am a little confused about the difference between a Ram Air Hood and a WS6 hood. Ive seen pics of both and they look the same to me, are they the same? If not what is different?

      ok.. ram air hood and ws6 hood are one int he same the pics that he showed you are of the ws6 hood [ram air] and the raptor hood [ram air] both hoods offer ram air, which is a method of increasing horsepower by 'ramming' air into your intake. the ws6 hood is available as part of the ws6 trans am and formula package, while the raptor hood is only available on the slp firehawk. consequently, both hoods can be purchased through many online sites and ebay.

            ehhh wrong... the the first pic was a replica of the factory WS6 hood. not exactly the same. the nostrils are smaller and the edge is thicker.

            the 2nd pic is the SLP version of the ram air hood. SLP's own design. That is NOT a raptor hood.

            Your are correct that the raptor hood comes on the firehawk but that pic was not it. This is the firehawk's raptor hood. It bubbles in the front vents instead of being two long rectangles. also has two head extractor ports on the top sides.

            its less of a accent then the Ws6 or SLP hood
