I wouldn't go with kw. There are a few people that had issues with them on this chassis and their customer service sucked for them.
I had ST which are made by kw and I had issues too.

Did you have the ST X?
Are the dampers adjustable, or just the ride height?
I have never had KWs but I have heard of issues and no good customer service. Probably going BilsteinsTons of people have issues with KW/ST, look at VWroc forums on the KW ddc and its nothing but shit parts and problems out the wazoo, not to mention KW has terrible customer service.

You could try an MSS kit on the stock shocks before trying coilovers...
I drove a friend's Golf R with that setup. He also had DCC.
It feels like the suspension modes got bumped up a notch... That is Comfort now = normal... Race = Race+. But the ride was still very well controlled and didn't crash around too much.
It's a shame that KW seems to have issues with their setup on this chassis. I've had V1s and V3s on previous cars and loved them. Here's a quick link I found about the KWs:

I guess Bilstein will get my business when the time comes for coilovers.
