I personally think the BC Racing coilovers are a better bang for your buck. And this is not a biased opinion, I sell both brands and actually make a bigger profit on the KWs.
So in other words your saying the KWV3 is overall a better track oriented coilover, however because the ER is almost as good and cheaper you'd go with those correct? (just clarifying lol).

I was hoping you'd find this thread DDMotorsports because I know you sell both.

From my experiences they are both very close in performance. Granted I have never tried the two coilovers on the same type of car so make of it what you will but I thought the high/low speed dampening on the BCs was just as good as on the KWs. And on the track I even like the linear spring setup of the BCs better than a progressive/helper spring setup like the KWs.
