I just wanted to ask who was running koni yellow adjustable and how firm they went on the setup and how it drives on the street thanks i just want a rough idea on how firm i should set them. thanks
Koni yellows

0 should be fine to start, you're going to have to drive it some then make adjustments based on how the car behaves.
Been using Yellow's 10 years now and apart from losing one to a dead bump stop they've been faultless to the point when I had a set of custom coilovers built I had them made using Yellow's as the base.

thanks IJ I'll just install them as is and do exactly as you said, determine what i want after I drive a bit and see what they feel like
I can't stress how Important GOOD quality bump stops are 
Without them the piston/adjuster on the end of the shock shaft will SMASH itself and the valving to death.

alright thanks i'm going to make it a point and invest in some quality bump stops
Koni make some nice poly urethane ones, I'm using some Porsche ones now as they're more progressive at full bump.
I love the driveabilty of my konis but i do no like the adjusting procedures. Not as easy as other konis for other cars.
I have koni's as well.
I recommend going softer initially then tightening them up if so desired.
Mine are quite stiff atm and I need to soften them up sometime.
All in all a great shock, only thing I could want is the upper adjuster instead of having to take them off.

I had these as well I loved them. They didn't beat me to death. I wish I could remember what I had them set at. They also are made not far from me! :thumbup:
I have mine set to the hardest setting in the front and one from the hardest in the rear. They are stiff enough for a really good autox setup.
yep, not easy to adjust, but I've left mine on the hardest setting from the first day and I'm happy
