Anyone running this set up that can share some comments on it compared to the stock suspension? I read many people are getting this mod done, I heard it is the first mod that this car needs, but what exactly do you gain from it over stock? For someone who does not track with the car.

Thanks!!!!

Are you referring to the KW V3 setup? If so it does not really compare to the stock suspension. It can ride a little stiff and even on a softer setup it is just a completely different feel from stock. The H&R coils ride closer to stock in comparison though. If you are in the market for a set I am selling both sets. The H&Rs are still like new only test fitted for 500 miles. The KWs have a couple thousand miles only too and they are the new version with easy to adjust rebound and compression wheels vs the allen head screws and rotator.

Edit: I just realized this is a W205 thread. I have the coils for the W204.
