Sorry, just getting to this now. I installed everything this spring. Almost everything went well except for sourcing the 28mm hollow torsion bars from Elephant (took about a month) and one strut that wasn't up to spec (lacked a nitrogen charge, KW replaced the strut). Only other challenge was sanding the spindles so it would accept the bearings. It didn't take a lot on the left strut, a ton on the right. I sanded the right strut all the way to 7000 grit. Maybe that replacement strut was out of spec on the spindle.
I used Rebel Racing bump steer kit to get it close. It probably could use a couple more spacers to dial out the bump steer, but its pretty good right now. Got it aligned to a aggressive street spec at AutoEdge in MN. I basically replaced everything. Only suspension bit I didn't do was the rear wheel bearings. Everything else was replaced with Elephant Sport rubber. New QC elephant spring plates and banana arm sport bushings. Eibach Sways on the middle setting. I set the KWs to the stock setting (haven't started playing with that yet). I also put Euromeister 17 inch Fuch Reps on with Firehawk 500 215 front 245 back tires. Much better Stance.
The car drives amazing. Like night and day. So confidence inspiring. Feels almost modern. I love it. Would feel confident on the track or street. Its just that good. So flat. It sticks. Totally happy with it.
