Perhaps this is user error not equipment deficiency? If coilovers arent set up properly you may as well be driving a pogo stick or a land boat.

I know of one that has them....or did last year, dunno if he still has his KW v1 set up. But either he was scared of pushing his car or something because he'd outrun my LT all day but we hit a 90* corner and I was on his ass till we hit the straightaways again.

some ppl just don't know how to corner and/or as u suggested didn't want to push it, OR lol the coilovers made it worse as I had suggested earlier

its possible either way but until someone buys pedders and coilovers and pushes them equally without changing any other factors we wont know for sure.

if i had the money i'd do it right now, down the road when things are looking a little brighter for me I will get both setups tuned to their absolute best and run them for a full season each setup and report back, 2-3 years down the road for me but at least we'll know 110%

Other thing too is you need a driver that knows how to correctly tune his suspension. Getting the suspension set up at a shop that "knows" how to set it up does nothing for a driver that doesnt know how to drive that particular suspension setup.
