KW vs. PSS9

I am looking for feedback from anyone that has either of these suspensions on their cars...especially if you have experience with both. I am planning to purchase in the next week or so and really appreciate any information or direction on these two products.

Thanks.

That's good to know as I am planning to get rid of my girly PSS9..
How easy are the adjustments? Do they come with remote reservoirs ?

Reservoirs are attached to the shock body. Adjustments are easy and not necessary to remove wheels. You can really feel the difference with each adjustment unlike some shocks.

If you want a more track oriented hardcore setup, get the KWs. Ive also done the PSS9 and its a great suspension for sure, but more for someone who wants a lower ride height, and a little better handling, but doesnt want to compromise ride quality.
