# of turn on koni yellows?

Alright, I'm getting my koni yellows installed this coming saturday. I know i'm using the highest perch because i don't want the car any lower, but how about the adjustable ride quality? how many clicks should i do for the front and the back if i want a comfortable ride (like stock), but also a little firmer for performance. I want both. Should i use the factory settings? Thanks for the help.

Well the Koni's don't "click" (the Tokica Illuminas have 5 preset adjustments) you just twist a knob.

For the front I recommend 1/4 to 1/3 of a turn and for the rear I recommend a 1/4 turn.

Personally I ride around with my car at 1/2 for front and rear cuz I hate that "mushy" ride. When I do autocross I go full turn back and 3/4's front (helps induce lift throttle oversteer with the comptech sways)

I have the rears set at 1/2 turn, and usually leave the fronts at 0 turns (maximum softness). I think the combination of Comptech springs and Konis (even at the softest setting) provides a noticeably firmer ride than stock. However, I have found that I do not perceive a difference in firmness or handling ability between no turns and 1 full turn in the front.
