They are amazing. The adjustment range is way beyond what anyone could use. From super plush softer than Boge to teeth buzzing stiff. Even if you had the stiffest torsion bars, you'd still set them in the middle. They are noticeably shorter and combined with the raised spindle option you could lower the car way below Euro height and you'd still not hit the bump stops. If you combine them with the Rebel Racing RSR bushings, even if you install stiffer torsion bars such as 23/31s or 24/33s, the car will ride even smoother and more comfortable on the street than a stock suspension because of the elimination of the factory bushing friction, and the digressive valves and two way adjustability, you can match any spring rate and set to ride as you want.


You can spend a bunch of money on Bilsteins raising spindles, shortening them, custom valving, and you'd still not have what the KWs offer you. I like them so much I'd sell the modified Bilstein set on my other car to replace them. Anyways you can see them on my '86 if you're going to be running the POC San Pedro autocross tomorrow.


And regarding Rebel Racing, don't worry. Clint is slow because his parts and services are in demand more than he should handle but he will deliver.
