Default Koni Reds for Integra... What Settings??

Search revealed that many people have no clue about the Reds (AKA Specials). Many believe these are non adjustable shock... they are indeed adjustable but have to be removed to adjust. Compress the shaft and then turn.... adjustments are 180 deg. apart.

Now onto the questions:

My buddy just bought some Prokits and Koni Reds for his 2000 Integra GS and we were wondering what the settings we should try first.

1) Spring Perch: 2 upper or lower perch? Which is closer to stock?
2) Rebound Setting: I believe there are 5 setting, which one works best with Prokits?

Looking for a pretty streetable setup. Similar to my set-up, Yellows with Prokits running 1 full turn from full soft.

Thanks.

Set them about 1 turn from soft. The adjustment is infinite like the Sports, you can get the adjuster anywhere you like between max and min instead of 180 degree adjustments. I tend to use 1/4 turn increments myself. Leave the perch in the position that they came from the factory as that is exactly the stock location.
