Default Koni Red Setting

OK so I replaced my lowered setup back to stock height with koni reds and moog oem springs. I set the Konis at full soft and they ended up being too bouncy. I adjusted them one more time at 3/4 from full soft in front and 1 full turn from full soft at back and they are better , but still a little bouncy. I will be replacing my brakes all around to integras (onto my 95 civic) and was wondering what suggestions people may have for this particular strut? What settings did you finally like? I don't want a harsh *** ride, but a well controlled comfortable one. Like I said, at my current setting, it's still a little bouncy and I don't want to keep taking my suspension apart to try a new setting. Next time I will get the yelows, but for now I need a suggestion as to what I should dial them in at. Thanks
Steve

koni reds arent a popular shock.

and really, its only up to you where you find the suspension "too bouncy" or not. so set it where you want it. i dont see what other peoples opinion would help.

but yeah, it does suck you have to disassemble the shock to adjust it. oh well.

it is interesting tho that at even a full turn from soft, they dont even seem good for new, stock springs. i use illuminas with my stock springs and easily found a good position for them thats just perfect....
