Default Koni Sports Stock Stiff

Hi All, i just got a set of Koni yellows for my 95 civci vti.

What i'd like to know is the stock stiff that they came from Koni. It's the most or less stiffness?

How do I can check this? I'm litte afraid on turn the up key ajust.

Sorry for my bad english.

I think you are asking where in the Koni range of adjustment the stock damper wll fit for firmness. Generally, the softest Koni setting will still be better than stock parts but a few times a stock shock can be overly harsh in some part if it's function and the Koni is designed to get rid of that harshness. Kind of like asking how an average Ford compares to a Porsche becasue they are different with a different focus. For basic use, they may be similar but for performance use the Porsche will be the preference.

The Koni is developed at the full soft setting to give the ride quality and handling that the ride engineers feel the stock car should have for good street perforamce. The adjustment range goes up 100% from there so they are twice as firm at max as they are min so you have a very large range for tuning for ride, suspension upgrades, useage, driver preference, etc.
