Default BC Coilovers - Suspension Travel

I hate to start yet another thread about these, but I tried searching and could not find the answer.

I ran BC coils on my Suby (lowered about 1.5" - not slammed) and although they performed well overall on the street, I noticed that the suspension travel was significantly less than my friends car with KWs.

I am now in the market for coilovers and leaning toward the BCs but I am concerned that the suspension travel issue may also be a problem in the ISF specific models. Has anyone upgraded from BC's to KWs (or any other coilover) and noted a similar issue?

I actually have the BCs with the swift spring upgrade installed now. I do not note the same suspension travel issue that I noticed on my suby. It rides pretty close to stock - slightly stiffer, but not uncomfortable.

I am really happy with the BCs.
