I'm not a fan of the KW V3s but I'm a fan of it's price because unfortunately I have to work with a budget. I trust you and Andrew and your development of the damper/spring (I think the RCE Yellows have allowed me to get the most out of my stock damper!).

The T2s use the two way KW damper with your custom revalved setup and stiffer springs, right?

If this can be made at a price point to compete with the KW V3s i'd be extremely interested.

Again....anyone who is really interested please reach out so I can gauge the production run properly. These will be made to order after the small initial run until the demand is there.

The reality is thats a internet WAY below MAP price for something that retails for 2199.00.

We plan to have the same actualretail as the V3 2199.00.

For the first 10 sets for those who are actually interested, we will do roughly 10% off of that. After those initial 10 kits The regular retail would be 2199.

So the REASON I asked in the past "who is really interested" is because if the initial interest is low then we will only get 5 sets made.

Correct revalved for more trackable use with higher spring rates.

These look awesome.

I want to get the most possible use out of my stock dampers and RCE yellows first, but the T2's will likely replace them when it's time

We're accepting preorders now....please call or PM if you are interested!



We've been continuing with testing, dialing things in and getting the details right.

These are based on KW CLUBSPORT, not V3s so keep that in mind when you are doing your comparisons. Pricing however will be closer to V3 territory.
