for those with KWs do you have to use your stock pillow top?
there's a reason why over 90% of coilover owners on this board owns KW, enough said.

Here we go unbias report straight from a vendor supporting JIC/CROSS:
If this is your daily driver and you aren't going to track it get the KW. Most people start noticing the differences between KW and JIC/CROSS when they are on the track. Google JIC/CROSS reviews and you'll see the ones that have run both KW and JIC/CROSS are all heavy trackers.
Hope this helps.

regardless, but if anyone is willing to pay additional $$$ for JIC due to an included pillow top...be my guest.

I like CROSS everyone sells KW. KW is cheaper by ~$700. What are you going to do with the car?
