Default KW ver2 or Bilstein B6 for racing ?

I'm going to use my "RS8" for track racing and want the best/hardest dampers for this.

What should I buy?

Anyone know how hard springs the B6's can handle?

I would def go for for KW2. I had it on my previous 8 and i loved it The adjustable Koni shocks in the KW2 kit is perfect.

I have B6 on my S8 now with oem springs. Works perfectly for everyday use but i would like it a bit stiffer. And the B6 is NOT for lowering springs, then you need the Bilstein Sprint that is Shortened. Had those on my S6 for several years and that was great for racing/trackdays.
