I know Top Cat is about to get some Variant 2's fitted and RedRobin is also considering some KW's via VW Racing I believe.

I don't have them myself, but I have read a lot of good reviews of them.  V2s are the most popular.

....Correct! :afro: Definitely KW for me but we don't know which yet.

KW have an excellent reputation, both for the quality of their products but also for their aftersales/customer service.

I'm on V3's.

Had them on for a few months now.

I love them but TBH my Suss was fooked before i got them on so the differance was bound to be gr8. Plus i did ARB's and breaks at the same time, along with trying to fix some other bits that had been done wrong.

If you just want common or garden coils, then get the Eibach ones - they're made by KW anyway and have a nice plush ride (for coils)
