KWs purchased and installed

Here is my write up and honest opinion on the KW Variant 2:

I purchased the KWs yesterday from John Hennessey (thanks for the great deal) and had them installed last night by the same shop that installed my eibach pro-kit. These coilovers have been highly anticipated my myself and I could not wait to get these suckers on!....I have to be completely honest with everybody and tell you that I was slightly disappointed

In my opinion, there is not a HUGE difference from the eibachs!!! But, with that being said, my C is an inch lower in the front and back without loosing any ride quality from the eibachs, so that's impressive. Also, it seems like the tires grip the road better.

After listening to all of the praise from everyone else, this leads me to believe one or more of the following:
1) I'm too picky.
2) I need to play w/ the dampening (I have it in the middle up front and honestly don't know what its at in the back).
3) I need the hotchkis/eibach swaybars.

Anyway, feel free to comment.
