another update...

Seller decided to keep his RS6 even if we had an oral agreement.

Found this out when sending him the contract to sign today...
Even had insurance started today...

KW ver1 or 2 works okay for track use,I think they are the best universal coilovers you can buy, my friend have v1 on his A8 race car
But if you want to drive really fast and with slick tyres then they are to soft and you need custom built coilovers for your car.

Kw ver1 / 2 has springs with this hardness:
Front 120N / mm
Rear 80N / mm

My KW Competition 2-way
Front 240N / mm = 1370lbs, but I will mount even harder this year maybe 300N/mm = 1700lbs in front.
Rear 140N / mm = 800lbs
