I had the KW V3 and wanted more also and I too did not want a slammed car and I had it to do over again I would get the Robispec KW option and I really wouldn't even consider tein or bc racing or megan or jic or any of those other Japanese companies that think a 10k spring is what every shock needs. We don't have badass roads here in America and need something with some bump and rebound with good stroke for each and a spring that compliments the shock, not over power it.

I wouldn't be so fast to lump BC in with "the others". For an extra $100 you can have whatever springs you want and customized valving to match.

This is why you pick the coilover application for your specific needs. A mono-tube strut with a linear spring is going to behave differently than a twin-tube strut with a progressive spring. Kinda like how you don't ask for a red car when you want a blue car.
