Hi,
I have KW Variant 2 coilovers in a 2008 Viper. What shock stiffness settings are you guys using for the track?
Thanks!
Rich

Somewhere in the ****** of the forums, someone downloaded the ACR owners manual supplement. It has lots of good info on shock settings as well as ride heights for the KW's

Richie, I think the 2's have 12 settings, start with slightly more than half way, say 7 or 8. (Record the settings and adjust from there). Watch your ride height, particulary in the rear. You need to have close to 3 fingers from tire to fender lip. The rear spring rate is about 650-680 and if you're ride height is too low in the rear you'll tear up the inner fenders. I had them for a few years on my 06 and 08, as you get faster you'll want to upgrade (stiffer) the springs, 500/800 work well on them. Longer term find a set of Moton's. good luck and have fun. Mike
