I have the V1 full coilovers on my Si. It is enjoyable, never bouncy and has a mellow ride. It's good for a daily driver with occasional spirited driving. But IMO it is much too soft for any sort of real cornering. Especially the rear springs.

KW is really popular in Germany, their products are manufactured about 30 miles from my home.

Basically, there are three different coilover systems available:

Variante 1: pre-set damping, only height adjustable
Variante 2: adjustable rebound damping add height adjustable
Variante 3: adjustable rebound/compression damping and height adjustable

There are fully customizable coilover systems available, too. Hella expensive, they´re called "KW competition", then.

I noticed that they have 2 sets of springs on one coilover. Is there any reason for this?

They had a KW suspension on the Audi TT in the new SCC mag. If they used it on that car it's gotta be decent.
