KW CS spring rates are about 450/1000, TTX rates are about 650/1300....as you can see, the TTX is a club-RACE setup, not a clubsport setup.
Ohlins single adjustable are 515/800 (Eibach ERS race springs)...so it compares very close to KW Clubsport and Bilstein Clubsport (~450/950).
If you run a bigger sway bar setup, such as GMG or if you run GT2 bar stiff, then the slightly less rear spring rate may be helpful.
I personally prefer Swift springs, but I'll probably try the Eibachs first just because they come with the kit.

yes thank you.I think use a gt2 rear bar with ohlins one way is the best solution for my car because is a complete stock car i' ve only 8.32 final ratio akrap exhaust i use mpsc or trofeo r with 3' camber front and 2.5 rear (during winter i need traction) and 98 mm front height and 128 rear this is my car

Although I have Moton race dampers on my S2000, I've been quite a bit happier with this kit's performance on my GT2. The only real pain is, I have to re-clock the rear shock yokes to rotate the body 90 degrees, so that I can reach the adjustment ***** from behind the wheels. Right now they are facing inboard.

Spyerx said he uses them. I'll be surprised if you find anybody else, which is why I never bothered to ask for feedback from Rennlist on the setup.
Mine have been ordered and will be installed in the next month or so...but an on-track shakedown won't happen until March at VIR.
The fact that Ohlins actually tested/developed this setup on the GT3RS, on track, and a 7 post shaker rig, with spring rates which are very much "clubsport", tells you this is a track focused setup. I expect to have the shocks dialed in to my liking by the end of the first track event, which is the beauty of single adjustables.
I wasn't looking for some massive leap in shock hardware performance over the stock setup, I just wanted the ability to quickly tune each end of the car independently, which is a massive benefit. That fact that I'm getting a better quality damper, especially at the price point, is a bonus IMO. If this kit didn't exist, I would simply re-valve the stock shocks and call it a day.
